With the poignant soprano solo movement written in memory of his Mother, Brahms' dark and brooding German Requiem is a masterpiece of orchestration and choral writing, and is deeply moving.
Concert Diary
Lesley-Jane’s concert diary has always exhibited an eclectic mix of engagements, serving to demonstrate her wide-ranging vocal skills and the enormous variety of musical styles she undertakes. In particular new music items feature large, but naturally there has also been the typical demand for “greats”.
Post lockdown, concert bookings have been fewer, but she has remained in demand for recordings, and has received some lovely reviews thereby. Most recently:
”Lesley-Jane Rogers’ soaring soprano voice is crystal clear and a perfect vehicle for the lovely songs”
Steve Arloff, MusicWeb International, September 2024 , reviewing 'Thomas Pitfield - His Friends & Contemporaries' CD
Her Past Concerts page makes fascinating reading: from Purcell to Bach to Mozart to Mendelssohn to Brahms to Verdi to R. Strauss to Finzi, to Tippett to Diana Burrell. It’s all there.
