TOMORROW NIGHT!
Don’t miss Fenella Humphreys performing Adrian Sutton’s award-winning Violin Concerto. This is only the second time that this extraordinary piece has been performed in front of a live audience, and we can’t wait to share it with you.

So looking forward to Fenella giving the concerto it's second public performance!
“…Humphreys's utter absorption and delight shines forth at every turn...... strong-toned, easy fluidity and immaculate technique...” Gardner - @GramophoneMag

The crisis facing musicology degrees is down to their commandeering and misrepresentation.
This used to be the most challenging degree in the humanities: science, art, language, physical technique. It should never be a soft option.

Thank you for your lovely review Robert!
Innate theatricality: composer @adriansutton definitively moves out of the theatre with a challenging yet engaging concerto for violinist Fenella Humphreys @fhvln, with @BBCPhilharmonic & Michael Seal @batonflipper on @ChandosRecords. My record review:
