Fair Oriana
Trials and Triumphs of Oriana
Penelope Appleyard and Angela Hicks, sopranos
Sam Brown, lute
Harry Buckoke, viol
Described as "pure vocal beauty" by Classic FM, Fair Oriana are a soprano duo known for the purity of their voices and trade-mark blend. They specialise in singing historical repertoire, and, in collaboration with regular teams of instrumentalists, perform chamber concerts with a hint of theatre.
Both members of Dame Emma Kirkby's ensemble Dowland Works, specialist early music sopranos Angela Hicks and Penelope Appleyard joined forces in 2019 to form Fair Oriana, a unique duo that mixes their passion for historical music with entertaining staging, contemporary influences and, varying genres such as folk, jazz and cross-over. Their concerts are often characterised by their use of gesture and acclaimed acting - as well as vocal - abilities.
