A Festive Thank-You! 🎺🎄🎹

Thank you for subscribing to my mailing list this year and for supporting me and my career.

I have recorded a Christmas Medley for you, arranged by my brilliant Dad Simon Hancock and accompanied on the piano by my great friend Patrick Milne.

I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Listen to the Radio 3 Broadcast of Handel’s ‘Messiah’ arr. Mozart, performed by Britten Sinfonia & BBC Singers (‘The Trumpet Shall Sound’ begins at 2:09:26!)
Watch Bob Chilcott’s new setting of ‘The First Nowell’, recorded for the Church of England at Lambeth Palace with St Martin’s Voices & Brass Quintet.
I have written a new blog post about my latest commission - a piece for solo flugelhorn by Charlotte Harding, generously funded by the Vaughan Williams Foundation.
If you’re looking for a film to watch over Christmas, ‘Maestro’ has been released on Netflix this week. I’m just about visible in the big Mahler 2 scene at Ely Cathedral..!
