What a night! A privilege to conduct these fantastic forces on Saturday. Vivace Chorus and VasariSingers in terrific voice, beautiful singing from Thomas NieĆer, great playing from Samuel Staples and the hard-working National Symphony Orchestra. Loads of lovely plaudits coming in!


Very good to meet up again (for the 14th year in a row!) with Richard Stilgoe at St Stephen Walbrook last night for the annual carol concert with VasariSingers and Willow Northeald, in aid of The Michael Varah Memorial Fund (MVMF). A wonderfully atmospheric and inspiring evening


Woohoo! Back to rehearsals this eve for Ellington Sacred Concert, Bob Chilcott Little Jazz Mass and @Will_Todd_Music Songs of Peace. GuildfordJazz All Star Jazz Band, Joanna Forbes L'Estrange, tap dancing and more! Tickets already selling G Live - bit.ly/EllingtonJazz




Very sad to hear that Kit Hesketh-Harvey has died. We were Canterbury Cathedral together - where we recorded this album. Kit is on the far right and I am second from the left. What a talent - taken too soon.


Tickets from just £10 for our Duke Ellington Jazz Concert with GuildfordJazz, along with amazing soprano Joanna Forbes L'Estrange on March 18th. A chance to see some of the UK's best jazz musicians and hear what Ellington called his best work... bit.ly/EllingtonJazz


Glorious to be back in Tonbridge School chapel with VasariSingers Jeremy Backhouse and Martin Ford on the organ (and the considered wisdom of Adrian Peacock as always on point)



Very much looking forward to working with Joanna Forbes L'Estrange this evening as part of Vivace Chorus prep for #DukeEllington Sacred Concert on March 18th. š
