Sydney Festival: Hamed Sadeghi in Empty Voices
14 - 15 January 2023
Performance Info
“Heart-stopping … Unforgettable.” - Stage Noise
An intimate and personal acoustic evening with the inimitable Paul Capsis, sensitively backed by The Song Company’s Francis Greep on grand piano.
A typically larger than life performer is stripped backed, revealing the raw vocal power and sizzling charisma we know and love. Capsis interprets cabaret, jazz and ragtime classics by Kurt Weill (The Threepenny Opera), John Kander (Cabaret), Billy Joel, Elton John, Melody Gardot, Johnny Mercer and more, with influences from Marianne Faithfull, Jimmy Scott and Nina Simone.
Capsis and Greep have selected this song program to take the audience on a journey through a story of Capsis’s life: of love gained, love lost, and strength found again.
