Nick Agius Darmanin and Francesca Aquilina have been working and singing together in various shows over the past few years. So it was natural for them to join forces and put together an evening of Classical Music entitled Notturno.

The aim of the recital, to be held at St James Cavalier Music Room tomorrow at 8pm, is to help raise funds to further their studies abroad. Francesca is currently reading for a degree in Music at Napier University in Scotland. Nick will soon be auditioning for various colleges abroad, having just attended lessons with Nick Sear of the Royal College of Music.

Their recital will consist of various light and romantic arias by composers such as Mozart, Tosti, Verdi, Debussy, Faure, Donizetti, and Gluck. They are aiming to attract people of all ages and to try and encourage the appreciation of classical music amongst Maltese audiences.
