Hard to choose among Jake Wiltshire 's spectacular photos of #ItCH at Opera Holland Park but this one is a favourite.

SHOCK NEWS: #Itch Opera Holland Park is a new opera that actually holds its audience rapt with DRAMA - and even wit. Stephen Barlow’s terrific, wonderfully performed production thrillingly delivers Jonathan Dove’s gorgeous score to Alasdair Middleton taut libretto. 3 more perfs. GO!

Excited to see this tonight!

Tonight Pappano and London Symphony Orchestra made us feel how excited Beethoven must have been when he thought of the 7th Symphony

Lots of goosebumps listening to the amazing cast sing through ‘Marx in London!’ — Scottish Opera has done me proud!

A pleasant surprise suddenly to hear myself in the Radio 3 Classical Mixtape right now (The Three Kings). Thank you, BBC Radio 3 !

Does anyone remember Toy Town on the BBC Home Service? Just heard “Parade of the Wooden Soldiers“ for the first time since the 1960s (nostalgia!) followed by a gorgeous performance of “Gaspard’s Christmas” by Zeb Soanes Ben Palmer 🇪🇺 The Hallé Heartwarming.

Originally planned for 2020, this premiere was worth waiting for.

Great to be part of this.

Slapstick. Comical. Energetic. Mad. Things you might not to expect to hear about an opera on Karl Marx's life, but this is what you can expect from our UK premiere of Jonathan Dove's 'Marx in London!'🕵️‍♂️ Hear from the cast about his "beautifully sounding" "cracking new opera" 📽

I’m beyond thrilled with this production.

Something to whet the appetite…

Loving my new avatar!

The amazing ⁦Peter Moore⁩ once again putting the star into ‘Stargazer’ — this time a recording with ⁦BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra⁩ & ⁦⁦Tim Redmond⁩. Overjoyed that Pete has taken up this concerto and made it his own. And so grateful, as always, for Tim’s inspiring advocacy.

Shame on you, Uber Boat by Thames Clippers : you’ve just taken £14.50 for a boat ride for my 97-year old dad (in wheelchair) that would have cost £5.10 if I’d known to pay by Uber app. Don’t tap in, folks!

All will be revealed on November 12…

The latest instalment of their many fruitful collaborations and journeys, the new album from Sacconi Quartet 'On the streets and in the sky: works by Jonathan Dove' is out now! BUY / LISTEN - lnk.to/OntheStreetsan…

Beyond excited to have ITCH back Opera Holland Park this summer. Written by Jonathan Dove & Alasdair Middleton based on the books by Simon Mayo “An exhilarating instant classic” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Observer General booking now open operahollandpark.com

Hard to believe tomorrow is the last performance of Itch in London. Quite a few people have told me they enjoyed even more than last time, and found it more moving. It feels like a show that should be playing every night in the West End.

I’m about to play some very peaceful music on In Tune BBC Radio 3 — possibly sending Petroc Trelawny into a trance!
