Alice Coote mezzo-soprano
Julius Drake piano

The period of Classical Music was approximately between 1750 and 1820, so why are we still in the habit of using this incorrect, unhelpful and limiting label? 

Rebellious but hopefully relaxing too, this recital by Alice Coote and pianist Julius Drake takes joy in questioning what makes music ‘classic’? And how – despite genre stereotypes – all great music has something equally revealing to say… 

Reviewing this recital at Wigmore Hall, The Times commented, “There surely isn’t another singer who could have pulled it off.”
