“I would
like to thank you both for the superb concert
you gave us...I have heard nothing but praise
for the evening and everyone in the audience had
a most enjoyable time.”

Sisters Harriet
and Caroline Adie first began performing together
in 2005, and since then have travelled across
the UK as part of the Countess of Munster Recital
Scheme bringing their delightful combination
of music and informative chat to audiences as
far afield as Grimsby and North Wales.
They attracted the largest lunchtime concert
audience of the year at the 2007 Windsor Festival,
with many audience members requesting a repeat
booking. Their repertoire ranges from beautiful
arrangements of music by Handel, Mendelssohn
and Debussy to hidden gems by composers such
as Bernard Andres and Amorosi.
