I’ve spent 25 years on the road directing opera and theatre in the UK, Germany, Russia, Japan, Switzerland, Austria, NY, Sweden and Belgium. Come have an afternoon of discussing how and why we listen to music, find some new music, share some old - all walking through the majesty of our temperate and unparalleled views of the mountains and sea.
