About the event
What a wonderful concert we had on Sunday 25th September featuring Lawrence Oslworth-Peter and Elinor Moran accompanied by Elspeth Wilkes. This event was originally scheduled to take place two years ago but was well worth the wait! We were treated to a lovely programme, including some favourite pieces from The Gondoliers, The Mikado and HMS Pinaforebut also some less familiar pieces from Ivanhoeand The Contrabandista. The quality of singing from both Lawrence and Elinor was inspirational but Elspeth also contributed a great deal, in her own right, for example with her playing of the Marriage of Figaro overture. She also revealed a fine bass baritone voice!
We were reminded of the sharp and enduring wit of WS Gilbert with the inclusion of some dialogue from the operas which was delivered really well by Elinor and Lawrence. The Little List, as performed by Lawrence, could also hardly have been more topical…
