The Cathcart Spring Proms

August 14, 2007 - August 15, 2007

Jo Appleby Incognito Artists

After soprano Jo Appleby sang ‘Song to the Moon’ from Dvořák’s “Rusalka”, she was joined by tenor Wynne Evans for a “Madama Butterfly” duet, ‘Vieni,vieni, la sera’. The last item before the finale was ‘I vow to thee my country’, that ghastly hymn fashioned from part of Holst’s The Planets. Conveying quite the wrong mood – ‘Jupiter’ is, after all, ‘the bringer of jollity’ and not maudlin patriotic sentiments.
