Performed here in Brahms' own arrangement for piano duet, his dark and brooding German Requiem is a masterpiece of choral writing. It also includes the poignant soprano solo movement, written in memory of his Mother.
There is also the stunningly beautiful song "Morgen!" written early in Strauss' life, and dedicated to his wife Pauline.
Concert Diary
Lesley-Jane will be retiring in 2025.
Rather than take down this website, it will remain as an exhibition demonstrating her wide-ranging vocal skills and the enormous variety of concert work she undertaken over the years. Her past concerts page illustrates not only an fascinating mix of composers but also the typical demand for “greats”. To view Lesley-Jane's past concerts, click here.
Other pages on this site are very much active, not least as composer and teacher.
