Steven Devine & Kate Semmens

Kate Semmens - mezzo soprano
Steven Devine - piano and harpsichord
Shakespeare set in time
The beauty and rhythm of Shakespeare's words have inspired composers throughout the centuries. Kate and Steven take a snapshot of settings from the 17th and 18th centuries using one of Britten's Purcell arrangements to then bridge us to composers from the 20th century and beyond in a concert for voice accompanied by piano as well as harpsichord. Kate and Steven include lesser performed early works by John Weldon, Maurice Greene and John Christopher Smith as well as celebrating later works by Amy Beach, Madeleine Dring and introducing Ailsa Dixon and a new work by Peter McCarthy.
