It is sometimes very difficult to truly express how one feels after a successful concert. Words somehow seem insufficient. Gratitude seems rather matter of fact, particularly on a public forum like this.
So all I will say is that the Ibert/ Mozart/ Mahler concert was probably one of the most enjoyable and memorable evenings of my life, and everyone involved sang with one honest, truthful, energised voice......and there is simply no way that I can fully express my gratitude to the orchestra. They know how grateful I am, and that must suffice. I didn't make a single sound......
And now? We continue with the music as the sole (soul) focus, and make music with joy, energy, fun and courage.
