Last day of recording our ‘Vivaldi in Prague’ CD, supported by The Continuo Foundation. Today was the very nimble Sally Holman dispatching Vivaldi’s bassoon concerto in G minor. The day ended with the epic violin concerto in D minor by Jiránek, played by Tassilo Erhardt. We did it!

On behalf of The Harmonious Society of Tickle-Fiddle Gentleman, I’m absolutely thrilled that we have been awarded a Continuo Foundation Grant, which will enable us to realise our plans for a new recording this spring, ‘Vivaldi in Prague’. Prepare for (Bohemian) fireworks!

A little bit surprised to see that @daraobriain.bsky.social seems to be appearing in Glyndbourne’s upcoming production of Handel’s Saul. He’s a talented chap, so let’s how he gets on!
