Very rare to see this level of tailoring nowadays, even among the musicians of the Chapel Royal. So let's talk about some of the reasons why it's great. 1/38

(I *think* it is also @RWilberforce 's birthday today, which is fitting because I often use him as an example of the ideal polyglot... I've never forgotten a rehearsal of Beethoven 9 with us & the Kinshasa choir, in which he seamlessly switched between four different languages)

NEW: Rayner responds to Raab's jibe at her for going to the opera
"My advice to the deputy prime minister is to cut out the snobbery & brush up on his opera. The Marriage of Figaro is the story of a working-class woman who gets the better of a privileged but dim-witted villain."
Incredible experience conducting in this hallowed building - a total privilege! Die Schöpfung tomorrow night with @dimabawab @tom_elwin and George Humphreys @cambridgeuniversity @ King's College, Cambridge instagram.com/p/Ce7Qcigjm5e/…
In the past 30 days, I have commuted by train c.14,000km. That's the equivalent of Paris to Perth. Time to stop travelling at 320 km/h @ Paris, France instagram.com/p/CeVsFeKMJHY/…

Fantastic to be in Lyon to work with the chœur de l'opéra de Lyon on Pascal Dusapin's new opera, Il Viaggio! I love me a new opera, i do... @ Opéra de Lyon instagram.com/p/CcUukEFMEU0/…

We are delighted to share with you a live recording of Messiaen's O sacrum convivium from that concert. So lovely to hear them sing together again, even if only virtually. 🤩🎵😍
