On Tuesday, Adam and I sang in a masterclass with Roderick Williams as part of the Final of the British Art Song Competition. Adam has been suggesting that we do some Irish repertoire for ages and we had a wonderful time singing Hamilton Harty’s Sea Wrack. We have also discovered the music of the twentieth-century American composer, Ned Rorem, and we chose his haunting setting of the civil war poem Look Down Fair Moon. The 1901 Arts Club was a lovely place to sing, and a big thank you to Nigel Foster, the founder of the London Song Festival, for the fantastic opportunity.
