This song cycle gave us a variety of scenes based around bereavement and grieving and the different ways of coping.

There was nothing morbid here though, just a collection of clever and witty writing which put a nice spin on the whole subject matter without being cliched or offensive.

The excellent music was interesting and tuneful and played by the composer on a grand piano – a grand in C+3, has to be a first! The simple setting and lighting also worked well and overall the performance was delightful.
