Debut Recital with... Trio di Seta!
Rebecca is thrilled to announce the debut recital of her new group- Trio di Seta!
Sopranos Eleanor Oldfield and Rebecca Milford and pianist Janice Tsui have come together as friends, peers, and music lovers to create the ultimate trio- Trio di Seta. Translated from Italian, their name means Trio of Silk, in honour of meeting as young students on Silk Street, at Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Since they met, their passion for music has found them wanting to perform together as much as possible. So, they decided to create this recital trio, to live out this dream!
They are thrilled to be doing their first official concert at the Cukfield Music Festival. The recital will look back at their history as musicians, with arias, duets, and songs by Puccini, Strauss, Howells, Schubert, and many more.
