Happy #InternationalWomansDay

Every time I come to the iconic old BBC studios in Maida Vale I wonder if it will be my last time. Can’t believe they’re selling up. Really hope today wasn’t my last time at this incredibly historic, if a bit shabby, building.

On this #InternationalWomensDay tune into BBC Radio 3 from 1pm to listen to the wonderful Kitty Whately in concert with Michael Pandya live from Maida Vale. bbc.co.uk/programmes/art…

1pm today on BBC Radio 3

I had the great honour of panelling this award, and though competition was fierce, Nicky for 1st prize was unanimous and v easy- not just for his enormous talent and charisma, but his commitment to community and young artists is just staggering with his schedule. 🤩

Catch our perf of Missy Mazzoli’s Song from the Uproar on BBC Radio 3 for the next month. I so wish there was a video so you could see Lucia Chocarro’s breathtaking dance that went along with this.

Starts 39 mins in or hear Missy introduce it from 34.30

It’s all over. Months of work flew by in a whirlwind of an evening that I will never forget. So many hugely talented and ingenious people involved. I am just buzzing to have had this opportunity. Thank you thank you thank you universe. X

Very excited to be heading to Barbican Centre this evening to see my wonderful Kitty Whately in Missy Mazzoli’s one woman opera ‘Song from the Uproar’ with BBC Singers & BBC Symphony Orchestra & Chorus. It’s going to be brilliant. Plenty of tickets still available!! barbican.org.uk/whats-on/2024/…

This is such cool music. And Kitty Whately is incredible!! Sunday at 80pm. Barbican.
If you’d like a ticket, DM me for an offer.

the so-expressive Kitty Whately (Marcellina) once brought me to tears singing Brahms in an Academy m'class. Swedish Rebecka Wallroth (Cherubino) will be another first for me.
Oh, did I forget the men? Peter Mattei no less is the Count, Tommaso Barea Figaro.
Nothing not to like.😀
