22.01.2022 Our hearts are full after a weekend of making music again. Thanks to St David’s Cathedral and the lovely warm and friendly (and socially distanced) audiences this weekend. It was a great feeling to be back on stage.

The Australian Viola da Gamba Society are holding their National Viol School online and you only have to join the society to be able to attend. Lots of great presentations to watch and you can channel your inner ‘viol player’ or simply observe for the fun of it. You know you want to!

Sounds sublime!
