About Glasgow Cathedral Festival: She Represents
Feast your eyes and ears, as fashion and song intersect in this lieder recital like no other. Turning the defiant mindset of the 1920s New Objectivity movement towards today’s social attitudes, Rowan Hellier explores the role of symbolism and sensuality in the modern female identity. Her programme unites music by Rita Strohl, Kurt Weill and Cathy Berberian with outfits created by stage and costume designer Rebekka Dornhege Reyes.
Rowan Hellier is a Scottish mezzo-soprano celebrated for ‘the lovely richness of her tone’ (Opera Today) and her ‘focus, drama and clarity’ in performance (The Herald). She presents this programme with renowned American pianist Jonathan Ware, who appears regularly in the world’s leading recital venues. Juxtaposing radical philosophies with the historic setting of the cathedral, She Represents challenges you, the audience, and invites questions on the link between sexuality, seduction and power.
