WE CAN reveal that The Anvil will be delighted to welcome Elvis Costello to the venue on Wednesday, April 22, at 7.45pm.
Elvis will join the internationally-renowned Brodsky Quartet for an evening to celebrate their long-standing collaborative link.
The programme will include tracks from their hugely successful recordings The Juliet Letters and Moodswings, alongside new material built up over the last 15 years.
The Juliet Letters was a unique creative partnership between Costello and the Brodsky Quartet, fusing pop sensibilities with chamber music, and inspired by an Italian professor’s decision to reply to the many thousands of letters written every year to Shakespeare’s fictional Juliet.
Costello also contributed vocally to the Quartet’s expressive album Moodswings.
In this performance they revisit both, but also introduce some new songs by Costello, arranged for voice and quartet.
Tickets go on sale from today and can be purchased from the box office on 01256 844244. Prompt purchase is highly recommended as this event is expected to sell out very quickly.
