First night of Jenůfa @rbo_org. I’ve been an opera fanatic for around 40 years. Tonight was one of the most extraordinary performances I’ve experienced. Phenomenal singing, playing, conducting, production. A truly great, incredibly moving, evening of theatre. If in doubt, go!

Finished term in Cleethorpes today adjudicating the amazing House Singing Competition @HavelockAcademy - every student and every adult singing (really well). And the end of term means I’ve now been a music teacher for A THIRD OF A CENTURY 😱 - still the best job in the world.

Always such a special day on #BBCRadio3 - Christmas music broadcast live from around Europe. The perfect accompaniment to tree decoration and Christmas card writing at home!
