A Tribute to Sir Richard Rodney Bennett and George Shearing

A Tribute to Sir Richard Rodney Bennett and George Shearing
St John the Evangelist in Oxford on June 20 will play host to an evening concert featuring The King’s Singers, pianist Gwilym Simcock and double bassist Malcolm Creese to celebrate the lives and works of distinguished composers Richard Rodney Bennett and George Shearing.

The aptly titled Lullaby of Birdland tribute will include not-to-be missed performances of renowned works from both England-born composers. These will include tracks from The King’s Singers’ album Get Happy which Bennett and Shearing collaborated on and Bennett’s Sermons and Devotions which was commissioned by and dedicated to The King’s Singers as part of their 25th anniversary celebrations.
The evening will be hosted by special guest presenter Brian Kay.
