Many thanks to the BBC for inviting us back to sing with the Daily Service Singers and BBC Philharmonic.  Great afternoon singing Carols with my fellow choristers from BPC accompanied by some wonderful musicians.  Can’t wait to hearing the concert on BBC Radio 4! 👏👏👏🎄🎼🎵

It was a joy to accompany @ChoralLytham and soloists @damianjokeeffe at the weekend. Haydn’s Creation certainly has many notes.
Really lovely to be back with @ChoralLytham yesterday as the bass soloist for their rousing performance of Haydn’s Creation accompanied by @MarcSMurray and conducted by Adam Robinson.
