Recent Highlights

On Wednesday 21st June I joined the Knussen Chamber Orchestra for the first time in a concert at Snape Maltings, as part of the Aldeburgh Festival. We gave the world première performance of Quatre Vignettes de Jules Renard by conductor Ryan Wigglesworth (featuring baritone Roderick Williams) and played Brahms’ Symphony No.3 alongside music by Ligeti and Haydn.

On Saturday 10th June I played with the London Symphony Orchestra in Trafalgar Square for BMW Classics 2023. 7000 people attended the concert in the scorching heat, to watch Sir Simon Rattle conduct a programme including Ravel’s Bolero, Debussy La Mer and John Williams’ theme from Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark. This concert is available to watch on YouTube:
