Summer 2024 - Tippett's New Year- "A major operatic re-discovery" Richard Bratby, The Spectator
Staged for the first time since 1990, @BirminghamOpera's riveting production of Tippett’s visionary New Year was a daring piece of artistic advocacy that engaged a fearless community chorus with a full-scale symphony orchestra and international soloists. #RPSAwards

In April 1993 I was playing 🎹 Les Boréades @BirminghamOpera when a local musician (he was with @TheCBSO) asked if he could watch a rehearsal. I seem to recall he was curious about Rameau. We said yes, that’d be absolutely fine. Happy 70th birthday @SirSimonRattle #SimonRattle70
