Delighted to see one of our choristers from last year putting in such an effortless performance. #Wow #Allegri #TopC
The Cathedral Choir are preparing for tomorrow’s Choral Eucharist for Ash Wednesday, at the start of the season of Lent. Here is William who will be singing the famous top Cs in Allegri’s ‘Miserere’. Join us tomorrow evening at 6pm - all welcome. @NorwichSchool @_cathedralmusic
A little late to the party but wow what a day. The strength of the choral tradition in Britain on full display. Such a delight to see various former festival members involved including some of this year’s choristers. A fitting send off for HM.
If you missed the broadcast have no fear. It will be repeated on Sunday afternoon and is available on BBC Sounds. #Edders2022
On @BBCRadio3 at 4pm. Don’t miss it.
A @BBCRadio3 day for me. Choral Evensong from @EdingtonFest that I produced last week on at 4pm and then The Dream of Gerontius @bbcproms @RoyalAlbertHall with @hallechoir @LPOrchestra @LPChoir and an amazing line up of soloists!

Home (and exhausted) from my 11th @EdingtonFest and I find it almost impossible to express how much I love this festival and place. I feel fortunate to witness such incredible music-making and to play a small part in making it possible. #Edders2022
