Thank you Sarah Walker BBC Radio 3 Tandem Productions for featuring some more of my premiere recordings of #JosephineLang piano music on last week’s programme 📻 This is the tranquil middle section of a dramatic Mazurka in G minor (Op.49) 🎧

Congratulations to everyone in the The Ferrier Awards semifinals today - shockingly, it’s exactly 9 years since my own final with Soraya Mafi. I can still remember the atmosphere in the hall - charged, electric, magic. Hope you’ve all had a brilliant time regardless of outcomes.

Off to Bergerac for a week to work with these talents 👇 gorgeous opera and song, plus a bonus recital of #Elgar #Beethoven and #Brahms with Ishani.

A glorious way to end two days of really special music making with this excellent bunch. Loved bringing the Stanford Tennyson songs for solo quartet back into the light. A massive thank you to Ludlow English Song Weekend 🎶 for having me, and to my amazing colleagues all weekend.

After a spot of more glorious Tippett with Elgan Llŷr Thomas with Katy Hamilton & John Bridcut yesterday, today it’s all things #Stanford for the closing recital Ludlow English Song Weekend 🎶: these #Tennyson settings for vocal quartet, plus works by his colleagues and pupils.

Thank you so much Martin Bussey! What a collection of masterpieces to get to play.

Some of today’s delights Ludlow English Song Weekend 🎶 iain burnside Roderick Williams Elgan Llŷr Thomas Ian Tindale plus John Bridcut’s captivating film about Tippett (esp classic fact about marmalade!) & premieres of Christopher Churcher Skysongs

I love this morning’s programme Ludlow English Song Weekend 🎶. Harriet Burns & Elgan Llŷr Thomas have created a recital of four song cycles with war and the passing of human time at its centre, including the #premiere Christopher Churcher ‘Skysongs’, which closes with a stunning setting of #SaraTeasdale .

Off to join the fun Ludlow English Song Weekend 🎶 and taking this lot with me!

Starting a thread of joyful and serendipitous title/composer coincidences with these two: ‘The #trees in England’ by Charles #Wood and ‘O #swallow , swallow’ by Jonathan #Dove . Any other good offerings I should be aware of?

Giving the premiere of this fabulous new cycle that Christopher Churcher has written for Ludlow English Song Weekend 🎶 Harriet Burns and I on Saturday 👇

A delightful few days in Paris are sadly at an end! This gorgeous space Fondation États-Unis was a new discovery for me and it was glorious to work with Renaud Guy-Rousseau and to be reunited with Lauren Libaw and again for this Spring-tasting programme. Merci à tous!
