day five.three

My concert manager Mike Buckley has just come over from the cathedral after Mark and Paul finished up rehearsing Winterreise saying that the audience tonight will struggle to keep their eyes dry. The event is sold out and we have a waiting list for returns, and this is the first performance of Winterreise with Mark and Paul together in the long road of performances leading to a december recording. This is one of those events where I will turn off my phone and sit still for 75 minutes (an extremely rare occurance) - I predict a peak festival experience for all those luck enough to have got a seat.
