All Saints Church, Borehamwood
Prepare for a night of exquisite music and heartfelt purpose as world-renowned soprano Janice Watson takes the stage, joined by a talented ensemble of friends — Derek Holland, and the brilliant Barry Solomon Trio.
Janice Watson is celebrated as one of the world’s leading sopranos, known for her radiant voice and captivating stage presence. Originally a flautist, she was encouraged to pursue singing by the acclaimed tenor Philip Langridge. Her studies took her from the Guildhall School of Music under Johanna Peters, to work with legendary soprano Renata Scotto, and later to the Ravel Institute in France. Her early career soared after winning both the Kathleen Ferrier Award and the Royal Overseas League Competition at just 23.
Since then, Janice has graced the stages of the world’s most prestigious opera houses — from Covent Garden and the Metropolitan Opera New York to La Scala Milan, Vienna, Tokyo, and Sydney — and continues to inspire audiences with her remarkable talent.
This special evening is not only a celebration of musical excellence but also a heartfelt fundraiser in support of SMA UK, the chosen charity of this year’s Rotary Club President, Sam Covill.
SMA UK works tirelessly to support individuals and families affected by Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and to fund vital research and raise awareness.
