Vienna is ready for this concert next week!🎶🇦🇹 #Bartók #Dvořák #anticipation @GeraldFinley #JenniferJohnston @ConcertgbOrkest @klausmakela @Musikverein

Last night at the Concertgebouw, Klaus Mäkelä led us in Dvořák’s Seventh Symphony before the doors of Bluebeard’s Castle slowly opened, with @GeraldFinley as Duke Bluebeard and Jennifer Johnston as Judith.

Next week, this music travels with us across Europe.

We begin our European tour of Bluebeard's Castle tomorrow at the @Concertgebouw Amsterdam, then visiting Hamburg, Cologne, Linz, Vienna and Budapest.
A joy to work with @klausmakela once again, Jennifer Johnston and the @ConcertgbOrkest.

Enjoying a few days off in sunny Aldeburgh. Happy to visit the new @BrittenAsABoy statue in Lowestoft yesterday & @BrittenPears @SnapeMaltings today.
