Greg Lawson had Edinburgh Playhouse captivated last night as he led not only @gritorchestra, but also the audience, through every story and piece 🎻 💛


I’ve been consistently thinking this over the last month but this show was right up there with anything I’ve experienced at the Edinburgh Festivals in 30 years. It’s always an emotional experience seeing this orchestra come together but even more so when its industry is under attack.



And thank you 432presents for your generous help 👏
