Summary
Rob Shirakbari conducts the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra with vocalists Rumer and Ed Harcourt in a program of Burt Bacharach songs at Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall.
Why it's fantastic
Expect a nostalgic evening dedicated to the master of the sophisticated pop melody, from the heartbreak of Alfie to the charm of Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head. The versatile voices of Rumer and Ed Harcourt capture that precise blend of melancholy and effortless cool that defined the twentieth-century songbook.
