Celebrating his 50th anniversary year, join us in Noel Coward’s salon at a party thrown for his friends. There’s Parisian glamour from Poulenc and Satie, Edwardian charm from Roger Quilter, a wry glance from Ned Rorem, a hop and skip to Hollywood with Gershwin and Rachmaninov, and crisp dance rhythms from Walton and Britten. This melting pot shows Coward as one of the finest tunesmiths of any time, able to turn his hand to beautiful songs that are full of pathos and wit. Join us for a most marvellous party!
