Monday 19 July 2010


At last a day with no rehearsals, but plenty of work to do nevertheless. The big event was our live broadcast from the BBC at Broadcasting House for Radio 3 In Tune. With the ever-amiable Sean Rafferty presiding, it is always a great pleasure to have this opportunity to talk about our repertory and productions with excerpts provided by our cast. Today the programme featured Emily Rowley Jones (Susanna), Nicholas Merryweather (Figaro) and John-Colyn Gyeantey (The Count) accompanied by our repetiteur Kelvin Lim. Gilly French, Jeremy Gray and Robin Newton provided some of the background discussion. We always feel so well cared for at the BBC and it gives us a nice warm feeling before the hard slog of the performance week. If you didn't hear us on air, you can "listen again" via the Radio 3 website for the following seven days.
