#SymphonistOfTheWeek Gál's later cello music took on a special melancholy strain. Do I hear sadness that #ClassicalMusic was rushing to leave his kind of music behind? Or maybe it's just @mattdjsharp's wonderful playing with @kennethwoods @EnglishSymphon. spoti.fi/2G3FzQS

ELEVENTH anniversary!! Just found some photos & footage going back to 2011.
The seed of the idea was sown in Edinburgh, summer 2009, Chez Deazley.

Last year's gig by ZRI with @mattdjsharp was a sell out. So don't delay, book today! Charlie Chaplin as you have never experienced him!
