Belshazzar’s feast is brimming with scandal, drama and tension. It’s also the origin of the phrase ‘the writing’s on the wall’. Watch David Hill's five minute guide to Walton’s 1930 cantata here - thebachchoir.org.uk/concert-news/d…


This is the ominous opening to Walton's Belshazzar's Feast. It sets the stage for a tale filled with scandal, drama and tension. We sing it with @Davidhconductor, @Philharmonia and Christopher Purves at Southbank Centre on 08/05 - book your tickets - thebachchoir.org.uk/concerts/belsh…



The Bach Choir Philharmonia Orchestra Southbank Centre David Hill A stupendous performance!! I was seated practically *over* the choir, and felt enveloped by glorious sound - thank you so much (and the Gloria from the Sagrada Familia Symphony was also marvellous).

Last night was an unforgettable evening thanks to the sensational @Philharmonia, David Hill, Amy Carson, Harry Jacques, Christopher Purves and you, our audience. Our next concert with the Philharmonia is Mahler 8 at St Paul's Cathedral - don't miss it! thebachchoir.org.uk/concerts/mahle…


I’m deeply saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Ronald Corp who was a good friend and colleague. A very gifted man combining Priesthood with fine musicianship. Particular commiserations to his friends, close family and his beloved Highgate Choral Society

Just heard the deeply sad news that Matthew Best has passed. He was one of the finest singers of his generation and his choir training was inspirational. I think he was the greatest influence on the modern day pro choir. His Hyperion Records Ltd discs changed the profession. RIP

Thank you! Eating Italian lunch before rehearsals with Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra 😀


Looking forward to a fun evening with Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra & chorus BBC Radio 3 Steven Osborne Andrew Hamilton #Bernstein #Symphonic #Dances #Gershwin #Rhapsody and #Walton #Belshazzar’s #Feast



It’s time to play the organ and what a mighty instrument this is in Peterborough Cathedral . The building never fails to take my breath away. #Stunning.


‘playing and singing are as virtuosic as one could wish for… consistently exhilarating... superb addition to the Howells catalogue... Strongly recommended’ ClassicalMusic Daily David Hill Durham Cathedral Choir Daniel Cook, RSK Classical smarturl.it/HHDHDC
