Cubaroque - Toby Carr, Elizabeth Kenny & Nicholas Mulroy

With songs from 17th-century Europe (Monteverdi and Purcell) and modern Latin America (Rodriguez, Jara and others), two golden ages of song are juxtaposed in Cubaroque. This is a unique and unusual programme that invites listeners into wonderful, evocative music that reflects eternal human themes: love, loss, fear, ecstasy, and much more besides.

Nicholas Mulroy, Elizabeth Kenny and Toby Carr offer performances of songs that are separated by time and space, but united by much else, and find expression in music full of beauty and unflinching truth. This pairing of old and new conveys a sense that, while the world turns and changes, people do not.

“… tenor Nicholas Mulroy’s glorious singing, the diction clear, the phrasing natural, the voice supple and multihued … Toby Carr and Elizabeth Kenny transcend stylistic categories to bring surprising colours, expressive textures and a wistful intimacy to the songs, whether solo or together.”
