Programme Note
Since graduating from the Guildhall Opera School, British soprano Harriet has won a raft of international awards including second prize and German Lied Award at 2022 Concours Musical International de Montréal, the Compulsory Song Prize and Recital Prize at the International Vocal Competition in ’s-Hertogenbosch, and first prize at the Maureen Lehane Vocal Awards at the Wigmore Hall. She is fast-developing a reputation as a “polished, witty, expressive and sweet-toned” (The Times) performer both in recital and on stage and on Sunday 17th September at West Meon church she will be giving a morning recital, enticingly called “Les Chemins d’Amour" (Pathways of Love) featuring songs by French composers including Fauré, Poulenc, Gounod and Debussy.
