Enjoying @bbcstrictly? Take a look at our FREE ACCESS interview with its musical director/arranger Dave Arch. He's given the song choices on MONDAY (or later), arranges the music BY EAR, and writes out all the parts BY HAND. Give that man a Knighthood! tinyurl.com/3cmbme75
So sad to hear that Sir Roger Norrington has left us. Such a unique, life-affirming character and musician. I think that he always felt like an outsider - which made him insecure, but also contributed to the freshness and originality of his music-making. Farewell and thank you.
So very sad to hear of the death of Sir Roger Norrington. Such a lovely man to speak with, and a great supporter of NftP. My thoughts are with all of his family, friends and colleagues. Xx
Heartbroken to hear Roger Norrington, my great hero, mentor, friend, and supporter has died at the age of 91. I’ll miss him dreadfully. Pictured here, many years ago, enjoying reindeer for lunch after rehearsals in Helsinki.
Debussy’s masterpiece Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune features in the latest issue. The brilliant and charismatic @jamesgaffigan, MD of @komischeoper and @LesArtsValencia chose to discuss this in depth. He clearly knew it like the back of his hand. notesfromthepodium.co.uk/?p=2032
