One of the first pieces I played in college was Bach's Magnificat, a totally formative experience. Still, when @VLuminis & @bostonearly Music Festival Orch/ did it last June I heard things in it I had never heard before. Now you can hear it, too. classicalwcrb.org/show/upcom…

One week ago today at @bostonearly! A wonderful weekend performing some of our favourite music written by and for women. Thanks to all who took such good care of us - we even snuck in a boat trip the next day, and made some fabulous new 🐕 friends in the #BostonPride parade! – at Camberwell, London

That was a lot of fun. Musically excellent, lively colorful production. The sets were very simple but the costumes lavish, contemporary to the period of composition. Many thanks @bostonearly for an afternoon of great music! – at Boston, MA

So if the Met won’t give us any more opera, we’ll have to travel for it. I’ve come up to Boston for the @bostonearly production of Circé, by the French composer Henry Desmarest. Both opera and composer are new to me. Tx3 to all! – at Boston, MA
