Thank you so much for coming to the concert. RSB musicians with maestro @DuncanWardMusic played this piece as if they knew “MOGAMI GAWA” river.
Many thanks to great audience that filled the hall that night.
Personally, it was so great to see you again!!

"The music of Alexandre Desplat or Jean-Claude Petit has nothing in common with that of Gabriel Yared or François de Roubaix, but all these have a typically French touch & charm." Listen to a new single from @RCapucon, with @LesSiecles & @DuncanWardMusic: w.lnk.to/lcvieTW

Turn of the Screw @E_N_O
is excellent, among best sung/played I've heard.
The @Bayluh production wears its premise lightly, is full of ambiguity and looks fabulous (and I don't usually ❤️ projections...)
Brilliant work from @DuncanWardMusic & the orchestra

“It may require an orchestra of only thirteen players, but the varied colours and sheer tension conjured up by @DuncanWardMusic and the @E_N_O orchestra don’t feel in any way small scale, even in the vast space of the Coliseum…”

Many congratulations @AilishTynanEire (stand out performance) @DuncanWardMusic @Bayluh and all the cast and @E_N_O chamber orchestra on 1st night Britten Turn of the Screw.
Chilling, compelling and thought provoking.
