‘The Armed Man was an amazing performance. It was powerful and moving and could not have been better. The singing was wonderful, the orchestra was brilliant and Patrick Brennan brought it all together perfectly. If it was on again next week, I would buy tickets today. The Angry Flames had me fighting back tears which continued to Better is Peace, which ended the performance perfectly. It was all so moving.’
‘Four days later, I’m still beset by ear-worms.’
‘What a wonderful performance in every possible way and each part beautifully woven together by Patrick Brennan to produce this powerful work. The Philharmonia has evolved over the years into a superb choir while the young orchestra continues to impress with some gifted musicians. I have attended performances for over 10 years and feel that this concert was “top shelf” and I eagerly look forward to the next one.’
