Matthew Rickard, Joanna Bywater

After the enormous success of their groundbreaking (for a folk club!) Recital in January 2014 we are delighted to welcome Joanna and Matthew back as one of our contributions to the Guildford International Music Festival.

Soprano Joanna Bywater and concert pianist Matthew Rickard will be presenting an evening of British folk songs arranged by Benjamin Britten, Ralph Vaughan-Williams, George Butterworth and Ernest Moeran, plus two piano arrangements by Percy Grainger. Amongst the items they will be performing are "Linden Lea", "Salley Gardens", "The Trees They Grow So High", "A Seaman’s Life" and "Three Scotch Folksongs".
