June Tabor


Went to see June Tabor in concert last night. The venue was Huntingdon Hall in Worcester (great potential, poor execution).

It's probably 20 years since I last saw June, but I'm delighted to say that she still has a wonderful voice and an arresting stage presence. Andy Cutting on melodian (diatonic accordion, forsooth!) was splendid as was Marc Emmerson who excelled on viola (something you don't hear nearly enough, I think). The performance is still as stylised as ever, but, all in all a good night out!
