We have been delighted to work with @lizlanecomposer, Judi Moore & Romola Smith with Bill Strang directing our singing on #Adifferentkindofliving this year.
A musical highlight of the last year - collaborating with @OU_Choir to create #Adifferentkindofliving online for choir & bass clarinet. Thanks to all for a rather special project. https://t.co/B1FVZYlvRr
