Autumn 2024 season announcement.

September 2024

After a very busy summer at Glyndebourne, Emily is now looking forward to an exciting autumn of debuts and lovely music-making!

In September, she performs 'A Musical Evening with Emily Hodkinson', a concert of art-song, classic musicals and popular songs, in aid of the Alzheimer's Society. As part of the programme, she performs 'The Ways of Love', a song cycle written for her by Guy Turner.

In October, she sings her first Mahler's 'Fourth Symphony' with Kew Sinfonia, conducted by Daniel Hogan. She will also premiere three new songs written by Daniel Hogan.

In November, Emily is very excited to sing her first Angel in Elgar's sublime 'The Dream of Gerontius', for Nottingham Harmonic Choir alongside stellar soloist's Joshua Ellicott and Dingle Yandell. Gerontius is a work that Emily has long hoped to perform, so she is greatly looking forward to this debut.

December brings a big debut for Emily, as she is the mezzo-soprano soloist for The Hallé Christmas Concert at the Royal Concert Hall in Nottingham. Alongside fellow Nottingham-born singer, Lizzie Ryder, they will sing a programme of opera arias, duets, musical theatre classics and festive favourites.
