| Summary: | More music has been written about love than any other subject, from unrequited romantic love through religious devotion to parental love. Matters of the heart have inspired countless composers and helped to forge many a famous love song. Memorable melodies include Tony Bennett's silken singing of Noble's The Very Thought of You and Lesley's rendition of I Don't Know How To Love Him from Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar. She also teams up with Julius Drake for Britten's Funeral Blues and with Marcelo Alvarez for the beautiful, moving Un Di Felice duet from Verdi's La Traviata, which was voted the most popular Verdi aria by the readers of BBC Music Magazine. Also commenting on the nature of love are guest stars Josie Lawrence, Alison Moyet (with the hit song Cry Me A River) and Issy Van Randwyck, who chooses Sondheim's Follies to ponder Could I Do It Again? |
