Bohemian melodies
Nicky Spence & MM Academy

BBC Music Magazine Personality of the Year, proud son of Scotland, vocal coach of forty football fans, volunteer vaccinator and a singing, idiosyncratic nose – Nicky Spence is all this! Musically too, the flamboyant tenor cannot be pigeonholed, even though one repertoire is particularly close to his heart: Czech music. During this matinee recital, he will take several young singers from the MM Academy under his wing and perform with them the inspired melodies of such Bohemian and Moravian greats as Antonín Dvořák, Bohuslav Martinů and Vítězslava Kaprálová. After his brilliant appearances in Jenůfa and From the House of the Dead, we could hardly miss out on music by Leoš Janáček too. Get ready for an afternoon of poignant and emotionally charged songs performed by a born entertainer. Užijte si!
