Replying to @zebsoanes
@zebsoanes what a brilliant show you gave us tonight in Colchester. We loved it. The reproduction of familiar, loved voices and storytelling were first rate. And your powers of memory are astounding! You deserved a packed theatre; we felt privileged to see your show. Thanks a lot

Nice review in @operamagazine for @OperaglassWorks La Traviata; Mahima Macchione writes: โ€˜Thomas Elwin is a skilled Alfredo, with a plush tone and fine Italian dictionโ€ฆThe duet 'Parigi, o cara' is beautifully sung with Gasparโ€™
