    It was such a pleasure to be able to hear The Phil’s St George’s Day concert – all top quality English music performed with tremendous skill and enthusiasm. The ‘lollipops’ in the first half deserved a far larger audience (where were they?) and certainly were much enjoyed by all of us lucky enough to be present. But the icing on a very considerable cake was the Vaughan Williams symphony, in a performance which so splendidly captured RVW’s musical picture of London – extremely atmospheric where required and thrilling in the bigger moments. But that’s all in the music: what the symphony needs is someone with a grasp of the overall structure to give it maximum sense, and Natalia provided precisely that. It was a terrific performance of a much-loved work and richly deserved the warmth of the audience response. Thanks and congratulations all round.

    Fantastic concert last night, really enjoyed playing! It’s a priviledge to lead the second violins, we are a good team and I always feel supported. The Symphony felt magical in parts, the orchestra really pulled together to create an atmosphere. Playing in ‘The Phil’ is hard work but definitely worth it!!! Hope the audience enjoyed it as much as I did!

    As a former member of the Phil for 30+ years, I have very much enjoyed the last 2 concerts; I feel that the orchestra is very much on the up, a tribute to the conductor.

    However, I have a few comments on the introductions. It is good to establish a rapport with the audience, and Natalia’s personality came over well. But to me, and somme people to whom i spoke, they were much too long , and interfered with the general flow of the concert. Also, the material seemed unsuitable for a for the typical concert goer, who is likely to be familiar with the material. It did not help to see people looking bored.

    It would be good to continue this experiment, but I think 3 minutes should be the maximum. A longer discourse would be more suited to a pre concert talk, so that people can choose to go or not.

    I look forward to the next concert.

    Yours, Roger Collison
