The Nightingale of South Bank (Florence Easton)
What an innovative idea for Helena Leonard to tell the story of Florence Easton's remarkable life from her birth in Middlesborough through her operatic career in Europe and America using both narrative and arias from some of her greatest roles, sung by Helena. Florence was renowned for being able to take on any role and make it her own. Helena has certainly made this show her own. On many occasions we have enjoyed her beautiful voice, this show also shows her dramatic performance as well. I had only heard the name Florence Easton before, I now know so much more. Thank you Helena and Relative Pitch Opera for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.
