A powerful morning @RoyalAlbertHall, surrounded by #WomenLeaders from the music sector.
Supporting the incredible work of @Donne_UK and @GDiLaccio connecting to accelerate equality in classical repertoire by 2030, not 2109!
The music is there. Now let’s programme it 🎶
#Equality
Back at my alma mater after exactly 20 years! 🤯
Returning where I was once a student full of dreams and excitement about the future—this time as a professor and jury member—unexpectedly overwhelmed me with the feeling of being "back home." ❤️ #RoyalAcademyofMusic
#masterclass
Walking those stairs, teaching where I once studied was a truly electrifying full-circle moment.
Grateful to Jeff @NovarteGlobal for inviting me to the jury table with Prof.Vanessa Latarche and fellow alumni David Gray and Louise Cournarie💫

Truly humbled and grateful to be awarded an MBE in His Majesty King Charles III's Birthday Honours.
24 years ago, I arrived in London for a postgraduate at the Royal Academy of Music, expecting to stay just a couple of years. Little did I know where this journey would lead.
Thank you to everyone who has supported my mission in music and education. This honour is shared with all of you.

What a privilege to collaborate with the #SaudiMarvels Orchestra for their debut in Rome with legendary @AndreaBocelli, singing with nothing less than the stunning Colosseum as a backdrop.
Among my guests: Prof Antonio Rollo, who wrote the Latin lyrics for Hijiri; journalist
Annamaria Barbato Ricci, deeply impressed by this unique opportunity to discover the Saudi culture through music. Congratulations to Paul Pacifico for another success of this remarkable orchestra and James Stirling for the brilliant production! #MusicUnites #CulturalDiplomacy
Leicester Square premiere of Iron Maiden: Burning Ambition!
When was a student @RoyalAcadMusic, I discovered many new classical friends were fans of Heavy Metal. 20years later I find myself among those legends, discovering how much we actually have in common:
“No matter our beliefs or background, we are all #bloodbrothers when #unitedbymusic.” Thanks to @LinaKhatibUK for this unforgettable evening, and to @KlassMyleene for her stunning dress design, which made feel to belong among those #rocklegends!

First time the @BRITs were held outside London — and what a triumph! A true celebration of music, with the largest venue audience in BRITs history and the most fun, Mancunian, dancing-and-singing crowd ever!

My guests included Canadian members of the @TheJUNOAwards, which change host cities every year. Such a brilliant idea to bring the giants of music everywhere!

#Davos26 – Day 1
Under the stunning snow-capped Alps and the starry sky, I navigated my first day at the #WorldEconomicForum, reconnecting with colleagues-friends from my previous journeys as Music Director for the SDGs, while also making new, exciting, and inspiring connection.
I have read so much about Davos, but only so much can be understood by being here in person. I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings.

Guess where I am...
A wild Happy New Year to my friends, vast and wide! 🍾🥂💫
A wonderful surprise, among the stunning nature and infinite skies, was the choice of a legendary engineer to pose with his violin, quoting, "Nature has endowed this place in a wonderful manner...
....things the visitors will never forget, and having enjoyed once, desire to enjoy again."

A special welcome by rainforest greeting me first with a kiss of humid rain — a reminder that I’ve landed at the doorstep of the Amazon. 🌧️✨
What a way to arrive in Belém, embraced by the sounds of the forest itself — a tunnel echoing the living heartbeat of the Amazonia. 🌿
Due to unforeseen circumstances, our leading soprano @CorazonDeLaSelvaOpera will only reach us tomorrow.
Tonight, at 7:30pm at the Climate Refugee Pavilion, we’ll share a reduced version of the opera with “The Climate Scientist”, our leading tenor @PauloPaulillo, and myself.
Tomorrow, we soar together:
