Dame Sarah Connolly & Joseph Middleton: Closing Evening Recital – ‘Kathleen’s Songbook’

Dame Sarah Connolly mezzo-soprano  
Joseph Middleton piano 

 With winners of Northern Aldborough Festival’s New Voices Singing Competition 2025  

Rachel Munro soprano 
Jia Ning Ng piano  

To close the 2026 Festival, we welcome Leeds Song Patron and the UK’s foremost mezzo-soprano, Dame Sarah Connolly along with Festival Director Joseph Middleton to give a very special final recital, and one which is dedicated to Kathleen Evans BEM, current Chair and former Festival Administrator. Kathleen retires from her position as Chair this year, and in recognition of all the time, dedication and passion she has given to the organisation over many years, this programme is made up of her favourite songs and poems: music that celebrates, inspires, consoles and uplifts.

Tonight’s performance by the winners of the Northern Aldborough Festival’s New Voices Singing Competition 2025 is generously supported by the Yorkshire Music Future Fund.
