Trio Mediaeval:Change of line-up

Tony Sheehan — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 12:38:13 +0000

Music Network have advised us that due to some on-going health issues, the singer Torunn Østrem Ossum is indisposed and unfortunately must withdraw from her participation in the tour.

The renowned mezzo soprano Catherine King will join Trio Mediaeval for these performances.

Catherine has performed as part of Trio Mediaeval on numerous occasions and has very kindly agreed to replace Torunn for the tour period.

CATHERINE KING is acknowledged as one of the most versatile mezzo sopranos of her generation. Her concert appearances range from the Verdi Requiem in Symphony Hall Birmingham and Elgar in Warsaw to medieval songs in the USA and Spain (caves and ancient churches), from Bach throughout Europe, and Italian Baroque arias in Genoa to Scottish 20th and 21st Century songs in Warsaw. Recent and forthcoming concerts in Trondheim (Bach), Munich (Kleiberg Requiem) and Worcester (Sea Pictures and The Dream of Gerontius), and Wagner productions at Longborough in the UK.

Trio Mediaeval’s concert programme for the tour will remain unchanged. We will be contacting our customers in relation to the above today.
