ne of the nicest things about looking through
our previous brochures is the variety of shows
on offer at De Montfort Hall. This spring season
is no exception.
We’re thrilled to once again be doing Summer Sundae Weekender especially given that last year’s event was a sell-out success. Keep an

It’s also exciting to once again be hosting world class opera at dmh with Madama Butterfly and La Traviata sure to wow in the autumn.
Looking ahead to Christmas, we’re proud to be putting on the

Tchaikovsky’s Second Piano Concerto

Sibelius’s Second Symphony also has
moments of intimacy, for example the

muted strings in the slow movement;
but this leads into a blazing finale and
its triumphant conclusion that will end

“Most people don’t realise that I was
a stand-up comedian before I met
Ricky Gervais and his coat-tails.
Life can be lonely as a TV writer
so this tour is a great opportunity
for me to get out there and meet

Oysterband
and June Tabor
Thu 17 November 8pm
Tickets £17.50
Twenty-one years ago June Tabor
and Oysterband made a landmark
album of dark folk together: Freedom
and Rain, a union Rolling Stone called
“a marriage made in heaven”.
June plus Oysterband’s potent energy
and top-flight musicianship made for
something out of the ordinary.
Friendship continued while careers
diverged. However, a reunion to play
a short set at fRoots Magazine’s 30th
birthday party at the Roundhouse last
year sparked the chemistry again.
Soon they were back in the studio, and
with a new albumful of gorgeous tunes
and brooding intensity called Ragged
Kingdom, plus revisited and refreshed
songs from 1991, June Tabor and
Oysterband are coming here on
one of the most anticipated
collaborations of the year.
“If you can’t appreciate June Tabor,
you should just stop listening to
music.” Elvis Costello.

The oldest and the best, it unites
fans across the globe in celebration
of “one plucking thing after another”
on “instruments bought for loose
change”. They have sixteen-handedly
turned the world on to the ukulele.
A tragic tale of searing passion
and memorable music, La Traviata
is Verdi’s outstanding interpretation
of one of the most popular love
stories of the 19th century.
The ukes appear on stage with one
ukulele each, no gimmicks, no tricks,
no vocal enhancers or overproduced
wizardry, then proceed to tear the
house down.

Based on a true story, it tells of
the passionate consumptive
Violetta. There are many echoes of
Verdi’s own life in Traviata and he
threw himself into the music. The
highlights include the Brindisi, the
best known drinking song in opera,
the duet Un Di Felice and Violetta’s
haunting aria Addio Del Passato.
