It was wonderful to attend The Lark Ascending and to meet Chris Why, the Artistic Director, who has done some incredible work through the Tallis Choral Foundation, supporting and creating opportunities for young musicians and singers.

The singers were exceptional, and it was lovely to see so much talent brought together in one ensemble.

It was also lovely to hear from Dr Joanna Rhodes, Chair of Trustees, during the evening about the Foundation’s work and the importance of giving emerging artists meaningful opportunities.

A particular highlight was hearing Jenny Wells play. She is phenomenally talented and it was an absolute pleasure to hear her accompany the choir on the violin.

Thank you to all those involved. It was a beautiful evening of music, bringing together remarkable performers and a rich musical heritage.
