Here's the thunderous reaction of 1000 kids to our Schools' Matinee of Un ballo in maschera. It has to be our favourite curtain call of the year... #OHPInspire
Excellent fun being had with these amazingly talented singers. Slightly less fun attempting to manhandle some/any noise out of a Wagner Tuba... #ROHphaedra

@EUCO1 for a programme including #SamuelBarber's Adagio for Strings.
Come along to the Concert Pre-Talk (6.30pm to 7pm) with soloist Emma.Entry is free using your ticket for the concert. Book here: https://t.co/cc3Qil1EYO
And to follow Barber, continuing the tragic mood, comes Symphony 44 of #Haydn, the Trauer (translated as Funeral!)....... @EUCO1 is anyway looking forward to a very busy tour.
