22 / 07 / 2008 - Robin

Well, we're on holiday, but after a week of catching up with family and neighbours I couldn't resist opening the lid of my laptop and penning a quick hello to you avid readers. The end of our season was hectic to say the least, as Phil's blog ably emphasised. Now we are all enjoying the beautiful English summer, growing beards, wearing crocks and - to use a phrase from our New York City agent - chillaxing! I'm off to see my friends in the Tallis Scholars perform in the Proms tonight, and went a few days ago to hear Nigel Kennedy and his jazz quintet play there too. We get to sing there on August 5th, and I hope you can either listen on the radio or watch on TV. We'll be as fresh as daisies as we walk out on to the stage!

Of course after our long break we get stuck straight in to a very full term's work up until Christmas, comprising more than 50 concerts and 2 recordings. The dates are up online in our calendar section to help you plan your next concert... We are really looking forward to some major dates in Paris, Berlin and New York as well as finishing up this year's residency at London's Cadogan Hall (I'm off to meet Michael Nyman tomorrow to talk about his new piece for that show). At Christmas the DVD and CD we made with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir is being released and shown on PBS. We have now heard the master tape, and it all sounds wonderful. But what am I doing musing upon Christmas right now? The swimming pool beckons, and so do my kids! Have a great summer everyone.
