Future Talent musicians shone brightly at a Gala Concert at St James’s Palace with The Duke and Duchess of Kent to celebrate our charity. To thank the Duchess of Kent, who founded our charity, a beautiful portrait of her by alumnus @RobBurtonSax was unveiled by Lady Helen Taylor.
A clip from @FutureTalentUK’s Short Film about my painting of HRH The Duchess of Kent celebrating her 90th birthday, her involvement in Future Talent (a charity she co-founded to support young musicians) and the concert at St James’s Palace.

Still beaming from yesterday’s @BrittenSinfonia 30th birthday #MagnumOpus concert at @BarbicanCentre. Working with these staggeringly wonderful players, @RobBurtonSax, and @williamajcole has been dreamy. Million thanks for everyone who came to support us - tears have been shed 🙏 – at Richmond, London

When we commissioned @nathanjdearden to write a piece for @RobBurtonSax, we didn't realise Rob was also a fantastic portrait painter, discovered by @SkyArts 🎨
Ahead of the music's premiere on Saturday, he's drawn Nathan's portrait in a brilliant artistic exchange 🎷
