HOMAGE will be paid to writer Gertrude Stein at Settle's Victoria Hall tomorrow.

And the show, Rose is a Rose is a Rose is a Rose, also includes the famous recipes and writings of Alice B Toklas and reworked extracts from Solo for Voice by highly acclaimed Austrian composer Elisabeth Harnik.

Taking to the stage will be Gina Mattiello (voice), Elisabeth Harnik (piano), Alison Blunt (violin) and Heidi Richter (cook).

"It's particularly exciting for me to perform at Settle as I grew up near Sedbergh and as a teenager I used the Settle-Carlisle rail service for Cumbria Youth Orchestral related activities," said Alison.

Rose was first created and performed to celebrate International Women's Day 2012 in the historic space of Kulturpension Prenning in Styria.

Doors open at 7.15pm and tickets are available from 01729 825718.
