Thanks for all the lovely messages about Curlew River. I think the film is beautiful, so do catch it on BBC iPlayer if you haven’t had chance yet
We greatly enjoyed performing Handel's Messiah yesterday at Manchester Cathedral, a perfect start to Advent and the Christmas season. We had around 800 at the cathedral; one of our largest ever audiences. We can't wait to share more music with audiences later this season.
Out just in time for Christmas! Roll up, roll up, get your contemporary English song here! Seriously, some beautiful songs & instrumental music on this recording. We had great fun recording it The Stoller Hall
We had a magical evening with Sean for his last In Tune BBC Radio 3. It’s the end of an era.
This was a lot of fun! Worth listening into BBC Sounds if you missed it. Some fabulous colleagues and a fitting send off for Sean.
