Song cycle for Mezzo Soprano and Piano
Composed 2016
Duration: 25 mins
A stunning new song cycle for Mezzo and Piano.
"I think the music both clarifies and enhances the text. I hear quite a few performances of the Argento Woolf diaries, and if I had this I would recommend it first!" - Linda Hirst, Head of Vocal Studies at Trinity Laban Conservatoire
“It was extremely beautiful and interesting – I loved the range of voices and moods you’d captured from Woolf and the fact that you’d brought out her vitality and mischief as well as her melancholy… the music just amplified this mercurial range beautifully.” - Emma Sutton (Author of Virginia Woolf and Classical Music)
Composer Richard Barnard, singer Sian Cameron and pianist Nicola Rose introduce and perform three songs from the project.
First performance of Woolf Letters, June 2016.
