On Tuesday 31 May Odaline de la Martinez’s Four Afro Cuban Poems will be performed in a private event sponsored by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and the Association of Marshall Scholars to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the Marshall Plan. The Marshall Plan was created after WWII to help England get on its feet. In turn the UK government created the Marshall Association to say thanks to the US by bringing US post graduates to study in the UK. This concert includes the works of several composers who were Marshall Scholars, including Odaline who studied at the Royal Academy of Music from 1972-76 as a Marshall Scholar.

This is the UK Premiere of the string orchestra version of Four Afro Cuban Poems, which will be performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Michael Poll (also an ex- Marshall scholar) with the soloist mezzo soprano Simone Ibbett Brown.

The concert is being recorded and the programme, including Odaline’s work, will be released on a commercial CD by Orchid Classics. 

Improvisations for solo violin and Four Afro Cuban Poems in both the version for mezzo-soprano and string orchestra and for mezzo-soprano and string quartet are proudly available for perusal and purchase through Composers Edition website, as well as other works by Odaline de la Martinez.
