Mary Carewe WITH Graham Bickley
Mary and Graham, have created a series of flexible programmes that celebrate their trademark on-stage empathy and musical understanding that makes their every performance uniquely special.
As a duo and individually they have travelled the world as principal soloists with many orchestras in such prestigious concert venues as the Royal Albert Hall in London and Carnegie Hall, New York but these intimate cabaret shows give the audience the chance to bask in their warmth and joy of singing.
Their eclectic programming may include music from Gershwiin and Ellington, Sondheim and Bernstein to Bacharach, Bowie and The Beatles.
