Dominic Harlan: Suburbia 1975
Pianist/presenter Dominic Harlan is one of his generation’s most gifted communicators. Joined here by two extraordinary singers for a song recital that needs to be seen to be believed. Following a recent Wigmore Hall concert, the much-loved tenor, Ian Bostridge wrote, ‘I would never, ever have believed that hardcore song repertoire could be conveyed so powerfully and enjoyably to an audience of children. An unmitigated triumph of the imagination’.
Suitable for 8-years old +
