Another long bank holiday must mean more #EugeneOnegin @PrestonOpera
Today - magnificent duet Finale to Act 3.
This Opera is really taking me over - been enjoying standing in as rep the last few weeks (and this piano!) but never fear the stick will be back in hand shortly!

Our Platinum Jubilee concert last Saturday with Company of Voyces. In this photo Nathan Smith is conducting. Think this is the moment he asks the audience to stand to join in the singing.
