Soprano Elva MacGowan is delighted to perform @TheDrawingRoom singing some of her favourite ballads made famous by her favourite singers including Doris Day, Margaret Whiting, Judy Garland, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Al Bowlly, Edith Piaf and many more. Although trained classically, Elva also fell in love with the jazz, folk, traditional and blues scene in Dublin and has been busy collaborating with different musicians to suit her style. She has since blended her knowledge of vocal performance with her love of old timey songs and traditional acoustic accompaniments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8ybt6Noy9s
@TheDrawingRoom is an exciting new project designed to develop the public’s awareness of architecture, culture and heritage through a series of events in some of Dublin’s finest Georgian houses. It aims to provide an alternative to the concert hall or gallery setting for audiences to enjoy music and art. The @TheDrawingRoom series stimulates people’s innate sense of curiosity, giving the audience an opportunity to explore the various homes, their beautiful interiors and interesting histories. Aine Nic an Ríogh is artistic director of @TheDrawingRoom.
