'.... here's the sweet and wonderfully-controlled voice of .. Rachel Weston....'
Humphrey Lyttelton

Hi there!
Just back from Dublin - had an excellent time singing with the RTE Concert Orchestra, conductor Ben Pope and fellow singer Gary Williams.  The concert was a celebration of the music of lunar-landing year, 1969 (yeah man!), and talk about varied..  For my first set
I started with Ennio Morricone's 'Once upon a time in the West' - gorgeous to sing with full orchestra - then headed to the piano to play and sing a couple of Roger Whittaker tunes by myself, and finally moved to the front of the stage to sing 'People will say we're in love',
with Gary!

Later on I sang the Michel Legrand song 'What are you doing the rest of your life?'  
The version the orchestra had was in a MUCH higher key than my usual one, and I was wondering how that would go, but it turned out to be the song I most enjoyed doing that night!  (Oh, and if you'd like to hear me sing that number, how about ordering my CD, 
gentle rain ?)

It was wonderful to meet some of the audience afterwards when I was signing CDs - thanks for coming to say hello, and.. HAPPY LISTENING!
