Operating Committee
A message from our Patron
It’s a pleasure briefly to stop practising for The Nutcracker and I - my two upcoming sell-out concerts on the same night - to write these words of welcome.
2017 has been a bit of a whirlwind year for me, including debuts at the Musikverein in Vienna and the Royal Festival Hall. So, it’s a reassuring delight to be able to look through the outstanding 2018 programme that the committee has put together.
And, lo and behold, I too am part of the programme. I’m so looking forward to the wonderful hospitality and the appreciative audience on 6 October, when I return to close the season. I look forward to seeing you all then.
In the meantime, make the most of this excellent season.
Alexandra Dariescu, Patron
