JOHN HEDDLE-NASH CONCERT

John Heddle-Nash gave a delightful concert to the Gilbert & Sullivan Society on 6th October 1976. The following are among the items he sang. I scribbled them down on my knee as he announced them and I am not sure if I have got all correct: Lully - O sombre woods: Lane Wilson - Phyllis has such charming graces: Michael Diak (in style of Handel) -Sing a Song of Sixpence: Saint-Saens - Danse Macabre: Liszt - 3rd Contellation in D Flat (the accompanist's party piece): Granados - Andalucia: Warlock - The First Mercy: Kipling &? - A Smuggler's Song. O Menekai (?): Mozart - Serenade (Don Giovanni): Mozart - Women may swear they'll never desert you (The Goose of Cairo): Non piu andrai: Moment perpetuale (the accompanist's other party piece): If you give me your attention: Stanford - Trotting to the Fair: Belloc &? - Henry King: Shortning Bread: Stuttering Lovers: I've got a little List: Joshua fit the battle of Jericho (new setting by?).
