Freelance Conductor, conducts Spectrum Singers

[Dave @DaveAlkan]

@JamieDNaylor Oh no! So disappointed!

[Dave @DaveAlkan]

@JamieDNaylor No, I definitely have this nightmare. I also have this dream where the conductor calls me out, just around the piccolo solo and says 'right, you take it from here'
But that's normal right?

A delight to collaborate with the @hallechoir yesterday, who sang for our @abcdtweets masterclass conductors working on Elgar's The Dream of Gerontius!

Thank you @mattconducts & @neilcpferris for an inspiring day of teaching and conducting! 🎶

[The Hallé @the_halle]

🗣 Thanks for your visit to @hallestpeters yesterday, @abcdtweets!

It was great to see so many people engaged at the course - we're looking forward to the next course!

If 1000’s workers go on strike its because it’s become a last resort,to prevent colleagues losing their jobs and to stop being treated unfairly.These are good people yet this Gov will divide and try and turn us on them!Transport under @grantshapps is in turmoil! ✈️ 🚌 🚂 ⛴

@stephenm68 @BBCOne Anyone know who conducted the orchestra for Bocelli?

[Dave @DaveAlkan]

@kennethwoods While it's great to see that you care, given the way the tweet was written, it would be handy to know what music you'd suggest need never be programmed again. I'd suggest that St Paul's Suite.

@ellamcnamee I am so stealing this line...

@PaulCareyJones Rather enjoyed this a lot during my short visit. Had to walk right past #donningtonbrewery. Would have been rude not to stop so now I have these to enjoy later 🍻
What a beautiful spot for a brewery by the way...

[Dave @DaveAlkan]

@PaulCareyJones Seriously, what a voice, & such stage presence!

[Dave @DaveAlkan]

@lfotweet's Siegfried dress rehearsal yesterday was amazing. Feeling truly lucky to have had the chance to hear an opera at such an exclusive and beautiful venue.

[Dave @DaveAlkan]

Special thanks to Remi particularly, but to all the team who make this all come to fruition!
Wishing you all another excellent festival.
A day I'll never forget

It's popular to bash Regietheater these days but I often rather like the weird and wacky productions. But I was delighted with how this relatively traditional staging really got to the heart of #siegfried, thank you @AmyOperaGirl
