Harriet Mackenzie

Harriet Mackenzie directs an exquisite evening with international opera star Sir Willard White performing popular folksongs show-tunes, Frank Sinatra and cabaret songs alongside a celebrated string orchestra and a sprinkling of surprises!. Sir Willard is as dazzling when performing standards from the songbooks as he is on the stages of the world’s great Opera houses.

In this unmissable project, leading soloists & Sir Willard White pay tribute to the relationship between a classical great and his love of violin and song before turning to the songs of Frank Sinatra and strings which resulted in the epoch-defining 1957 album Close to You. Songs include Deep River, Blow Gabriel, Summertime, and My Way.
