Dynamic start to Juilliard415's New Zealand tour

Simon Holden, 26th May

On the basis of this concert, the graduate ensemble Juilliard415 (named after the standard Baroque pitch of 415 Hz) is already of extremely high quality indeed, technically proficient and highly in-tune with Baroque style.

A magnificent Sea Symphony from the Bach Choir

David Truslove, 17th November

A memorable evening of superb music-making at the Royal Festival Hall, illuminating two well-known Vaughan Williams scores and shining a light on a seldom performed rarity.

Coleridge-Taylor shines at the Three Choirs Festival

Simon Cummings, 27th July

David Smythe

David the farmer was drawn into music through choirs, orchestras, taking part in and directing 'serious' opera as a student. Passionate about live classical music, particularly chamber opera, unusual pieces and events and giving the next generation the tools to engage with the classical world.
