The heartbeat of TSLR is Sue Casson's catalogue of songs.
A poet of the piano, her expressive lyrics are matched by memorable melodies in music ranging from haunting torchsongs to witty pastiche by way of musical storytelling.
Over a long career, Casson has written songs for radio and TV, for the theatre, cabaret, and the concert hall.
