We are part of the Ruby Hughes fan club and went to hear her perform today at the Wigmore Hall. You can listen to the concert on Radio 3 too. Sublime. Songs by Errolyn Wallen who I should have known about, but didn’t, Benjamin Britten’s ‘I wonder as I wander’, then, Charles Ives and back to Errolyn Wallen, finishing with a song about Rain and two encores. You can presumably hear it on Playback.

Errollyn Wallen’s memoir Becoming A Composer, published by Faber in 2023, is a really good read. An interesting life and an impressive ability to communicate her process of writing music.
Another book to read. Thank you. Charles
Hooray !! I was so very sad to miss this.
