Little shot of a very foggy Shard. London always gives you opportunities to use your camera.

Sometimes you forget pieces that you love or that you have heard so many times that you think don’t like them any more… don’t fool yourself… you loved those pieces in the first place for a reason

Some days you go out with your camera and without you knowing it, your brain has a plan for you. Today apparently, it was subframes… www.instagram.com/peresaurio/p...

So the day has arrived… holidays!! Working in a school is fantastically rewarding but extremely demanding. I really wonder how Holst had the time to write pieces like this to his students…

Today on Opera Wednesdays a very famous aria from a not that known composer. It reminds me of Strauss and Der Rosenkavalier. It definitely makes you feel a lot. #music #classical #classicalmusic #opera

So I had a weekend listening to Sibelius 3rd symphony in preparation to my next concert. I must admit I was not very familiar with this symphony… so when I heard the second movement for the first time, it took my breath away #music #classical #classicalmusic #art open.spotify.com/track/2h1mST...

There are fewer things that pump me up more than listening Marquez’s works. You can feel tradition, culture and history through his works.

It took Brahms 21 years to premiere his first symphony, from first sketches to final touches. It’s said he believed no more symphonies could be written after Beethoven 9th. Never be afraid of trying, because he did and look at what he was able to do… enjoy!

Very long day today. We had a partnership visit from Guildhall School of Music and Drama during the day, then a student concert in the evening. Tired, very tired… but I will never get tired of this:

After last night’s concert, I must admit that Mahler’s 4th symphony has grown on me. When we started rehearsing a few weeks ago, I hated it but little by little has won me over.
