Looking forward to hearing this following @FreshNotations’ recent review of @YujaWang and @LAPhil’s new John Adams album.

Next week I will be a guest on @ClassicalKUSC and @LAPhil's "At home with..." on May 12 & 13 from 6-7PM PDT. I have curated a playlist for each broadcast, and will discuss the tracks I've chosen and how I have been spending my time at home w/ host @lauritzen_brian. 📸 J. Wesely

Great article in The Times this morning discussing @NickyBenedetti’s shutdown sessions which featured in our recent Record Review. #freshnotations #recordreview thetimes.co.uk/article/nicola…


Wonderful evening reviewing @marinalsop, @LPOrchestra, @Sviceridor and @LPChoir. Watch this space for a review of a truly energetic Belshazzar’s Feast. 🎶🌟

Today would have been Luciano Pavarotti's 84th birthday. We're celebrating one of the greatest voices of the 20th century with this clip of him singing 'E lucevan le stelle' from Puccini's 'Tosca'. Which is your favourite Pavarotti role?

Do you know someone who's open to trying classical music, but isn't sure what they'll like? This podcast might be a good place to start. bbc.in/2IIVrY1 @clemencybh #ClassicalFix

Excellent article busting some of the myths of classical music. Echoes so much of what Fresh Notations tries to do: busting myths and talking about music criticism in an accessible way. ⁦@GdnClassical⁩ ⁦@guardian@jonathanlennie #music theguardian.com/sounds-of-our-…


The latest Fresh Notations blog is a review of Kasper Holten’s visually inspiring production of Don Giovanni which modernises opera and breaks down barriers that often make opera appear daunting to newcomers. @RoyalOperaHouse #ClassicalMusic #opera #mozart freshnotations.co.uk/literalnotatio…


Wonderful to be here for the opening night of Don Giovanni at Royal Opera House. @RoyalOperaHouse #opera #openingnight

Bravo and thank you to @Vienna_phil for the second of their @bbcproms this year! The closing encore was Strauss’s polka Without Sorrows. The concert is available to listen to via @BBCSounds for 30 days.

A wonderful photo by the BBC’s Chris Christodoulou who captures Bernard Haitink’s farewell to the Proms. #BernardHaitink #viennaphilharmonic

The latest Fresh Notations review captures the experience of being at the jazzy last night of the Snape Maltings Proms on the English coast. Find out more in the link in the bio. #freshnotations @snapemaltings freshnotations.co.uk/literalnotatio…
