Happy 80th to @philharmonialondon.bsky.social who held their first concert this week in 1945!

Great to celebrate in London with Santtu-Matias Rouvali conducting Shostakovich 5, Finlandia, and Christian Lindberg performing the solo part in his own Trombone Concerto No 4

To the National Gallery and the room where Dame Myra Hess launched her series of wartime concerts on this day in 1939. A very special concert from Jessica Duchen and Lara Melda telling Myra's story in music and words, concluding with her own transcription of Bach's 'Jesu, Joy'

Do watch Chris Rowley's excellent video on Elgar's writing for the bassoon: 'Having an opportunity to recreate the sound world he had in mind and play these wonderful instruments is a huge privilege' youtu.be/pnWdpsd1CFk?...

Fascinating to hear Elgar played on period instruments courtesy of the OAE (wooden flutes, French bassoons etc) + to learn about his talents as a bassoonist at Chris Rowley's pre-concert talk
