It’s just two weeks until our 20th Anniversary Gala Concert @wigmore-hall.org.uk! A very small handful of tickets are still available for our concert on 12th May - see our website for more details. We’re hugely excited to celebrate 20 years of Stile, with plenty of our favourite music! 🤩

This was a lovely surprise!

Very excited that this has happened!

Good morning! A very special day celebrating 30 years of Private Passions on BBC Radio 3. 1,100 guests and every episode presented by Michael Berkeley! In Breakfast you can hear interview clips and music choices from David Attenborough, Kate Adie, Dudley Moore & Carol Ann Duffy.

Out today! A Plastic Theatre, a new album of the works of Joanna Marsh on Signum Classics. I appear on the highly environmentally relevant title piece, A Plastic Theatre, with the wonderful Ellie Slorach and @liverpoolphil.bsky.social orchestra, youth and children’s choirs.

Big news from 400 years ago! Turns out the 17th-century English musician and composer Richard Dering secretly converted to Catholicism and worked at the Venerable English College in Rome. Proud to publish the research I’ve done to unearth all of this with Maurice Whitehead.

A terrific first day of rehearsal for this... one of my favourite programmes to date!

Thousands of pupils across the South West are set to experience a taste of LIVE symphonic music throughout January and February. We’ll be sharing events for pupils from six to 16, including concerts tailored to the GCSE Music curriculum… and we can’t wait! ➡️ https://buff.ly/3PyP3EO

Looking forward to conducting this piece with @londiniumchoir.bsky.social... I wonder if I can convince them to do the actions? (But really, what a remarkable performance!) www.youtube.com/watch?v=hY-G...

Spent most of the last day of 2024 making editions for @londiniumchoir.bsky.social... many joyful moments of old spelling, but I think my favourite discovery of the day was how Byrd spells, er, Byrd...

This is about to start on Radio 3, if that’s your flavour of sausage.

Terrific Christmas concert with @londiniumchoir.bsky.social last night, including the epic 'Rorate Coeli' by John Joubert and a heartfelt Byrd Ne Irascaris. Thanks to Noel Chow for the photo!

Concert day today!

Looking forward to singing in this tomorrow evening.

A real treat listening to last night’s rehearsal with @colla-voce.bsky.social for ‘In the Stillness’ on Friday, 7.30pm at Holy Sepulchre! Joubert’s ‘Rorate Coeli’ is a must-hear + Byrd, Gabrieli, Howells, Ireland, Beamish, Willis + more. Wine and mince pies too. www.londinium-voices.org.uk/events
