'Trio for Two Cats and a Trombone' was the title of one of this evening's poems. Anybody who would be assuming now that it would be an English evening with two cats singing and a trombone playing would go far amiss. The three musicians were out for an evening where they wanted to bring together english poetry from five centuries with its corresponding music. (...)
The audience was enthousiastic about the cabaret-like performance of the trio and applauded for an encore. English humour, English poetry and English music proved to be a fine mixture and demonstrated that poetry evenings don't have to be simply romantic or even a bit dull sometimes - quite on the contrary and as in this case they can be most amusing stuff'.
