Interesting article from @RichmoMusic in @thetimes today - as a huge curling fan AND a violist in the @RSNO it hits home.

Happy Lunar New Year! Read all about how we celebrated Hogmanay in China with audiences, locals and a friendly hotel robot on our tour blog.
Welcome to the Year of the Snake!🐍

We were thrilled to launch the partnership alongside Charanga and Culture Minister @ChristinaSNP at St Rose of Lima Primary School this morning.
Thank you to all of the children for their wonderful singing and music-making!

Beautiful moonlit sky early on a Sunday morning - up and on my way to rehearsals for @RSNO @west_end_int West End 🌲 extravaganza @GCHalls
Turned on the iPlayer this morning to see @scott_mills still on his treadmill. Go Scott - over £0.5m raised!! Hi from Scotland!!
This piece always leaves me an emotional wreck and this week has been no different. A poignant week to perform it remembering my grandparents who gave so much for my freedom. 🌺 So proud of my @RSNO and @RSNOChorus family.
Today marks the start of @RSNO #GaspardOnTour covering over 1000 miles on the road in Scotland: Stranraer today, Langholm tomorrow then Aviemore, Inverness and Kirkwall next week. He’ll be a well travelled fox 🦊
We took #GaspardsFoxtrot to Stranraer today! With splendid narration by @lucy_drever & conducted by @BertieBaigent #GaspardOnTour
Katie’s Ewok is famous!
I did not realize it was 'bring your Ewok to work' day! :)
Wonderful, as always, to hear @RSNO play. Tonight it was The music of Star Wars! And a very eager audience! :)

Beloved music performed by some of your favourite artists – the perfect pick-me-up for that post-Christmas slump. Watch online: rsno.org.uk/watch-online/
This is too awesome not to share 🐶 – at Buchlyvie, Scotland
It’s #SantaPawsDay - the day all our dogs get to pick their Christmas gift! Sadly, we couldn’t fit them all in, but we hope the pure joy of the ones we did makes you smile!
To all our supporters and everyone who sent a gift, thank you! We hope you have a very Merry Christmas! 💛
Being immersed in the breadth, depth and colour of a huge symphony orchestra at full pelt is almost too much to bear, almost. It’s been too long. @RSNO @theusherhall #viewfromthestage – at Edinburgh, Scotland
Autumn veg haul - either my sweet corn are massive or my pumpkin have had growth issues (it’s the latter btw). #sizematters
Such an honour to work with the legend that is Sir Roger and the amazing @francescadego The kind of ‘working all weekend’ that puts a smile on your face. @RSNO
The Maestro is in the tent! Always a thrill to work with Gergiev, terrifying and joyous in equal measure! Lucky people who have tickets for our two @RSNO sold out shows tonight. #viewfromthestage
Yesterday’s #viewfromthestage with the lovely @itselimchan and @solgabetta Classic musicians don’t usually love playing outside but the EIF have really created something special in this venue - lovely to play as the sun sets and the atmospheric lights come on! @RSNO
I’d forgotten that bit of adrenaline, it sits in the pit of your stomach waiting to pounce when the downbeat strikes. Without an audience, music has been a mic, a camera, an empty hall for 18 months but here we are performing live again. #viewfromthestage @RSNO
Lucky me to be the proud owner of this amazing painting of my favourite piece. You can still watch the @rsno performance online as part of their digital season. – at Buchlyvie, Scotland
Thank you Georgia Mann @BBCRadio3 Essential Classics for mentioning my #100daysofmusicasart project and my painting of Barber’s violin concerto. 🙏
