Con Amore – the spectrum of romantic declaration in the tenor repertoire, The Christ Church Centre

Xavier Hetherington (tenor), accompanied by Natalie Burch

Love is the tenor's realm. Look through any compilation of tenor arias from history's greatest operas and you will find love and romance to be the overwhelming theme. That word 'love' however contains a vast spectrum of emotion and action spanning from the rage-filled and violent to the uxorious and tender. This lecture containing arias by, among others, Verdi, Puccini, Tchaikovsky and Mozart will explore the wide range of amorous expression in opera's most popular fach and see how the many colours of love are reflected in music.
