It's exactly 100 years today since the premiere of this absolute gem of a piece, Leoš Janáček's 'Kreutzer Sonata' 🎼
This is one of our fave moments from the 2nd movement at our concert at @wigmore_hall last year ❤️
Looking forward to this tomorrow! Crisis mode activated
Pianist @vijayiyer collaborates with @manc_collective and conductor @DuncanWardMusic for an artist retrospective, but not as you know it 🎹
Warming up with @SolemQuartet with a little bit of my arrangement of Running up that Hill by Kate Bush (my hero) feat. the ever-brilliant @AliceZawadzki (and a juicy metric modulation)
Warming up for last night’s gig w @AliceZawadzki 🤍
Looking forward to some Boulanger, Debussy and Mendelssohn later this afternoon!

Painted Light
@SolemQuartet
I 🩷🩷🩷 @delphianrecords! Every piece is a #DiscoveryOfTheWeek from the Finnis (inspired by Beethoven's Heiliger Dankgesang) to the Joni Mitchell arrangement that had me on the edge of tears.
Very touching to read this!!
A lovely arrangement for string quartet by William Newell (2nd violinist) of Lili Boulanger's Nocturne. Part of an excellent new album from @SolemQuartet.

Rounding off the musicians are @will_newell (violin/viola), @BassRemote (double bass), Laurence Ungless (double bass), Stephanie Dunne (vocals/yells) and @jasonalder (clarinet + lots of unnerving noises & extended techniques).
Had good fun as ever working with the brilliant @ArthurInColour on this, bringing his colourful, sinister, witty music to life!
On Monday 25th Sept I'll be performing Mendelssohn Octet alongside my wife(!!!) Steph Tress, and brilliant colleagues of enSEmble26 led by Roman Simovic 🔥
Not to be missed...
