In forty-five years of professional music-making I don't know when I've ever enjoyed myself so much.
- Justin LavenderThe Bach absolutely danced!
It was a joy to have such accomplished musicians playing with such assurance and we all thought the trio of soloists in the opening Brandenburg Concerto were superb and set us off with a momentum which never eased.
- Phoenix choir memberWho would have thought we could hear music like this in Bicester.
