Wonderful and inspiring masterclass with @ShekuKM working with my student Gonçalo Oliveira Pires on Haydn’s D major concerto. Well done to Gonçalo for also recently winning the Concerto competition performing the Dvorak Concerto. 🔥 Very proud. 👏🎶

@HopeViolin @AlexeyBotvinov Alexey our thoughts and prayers are with you, your family and all Ukrainians at this time. Danny 🙏❤️

[Daniel Hope @HopeViolin]

The Ukrainian people, their music + their musicians have been a great source of inspiration to me, as they have to many others. I am fortunate to make music every year in Odessa (…)Let us hope for peace, an end to violence, a return to both dialogue and music.
