WOW! Incredibly moving. Sven Helbig's revised orchestrations are sublime. Very much looking forward to the playback and conversation event at IWM North on Thursday and to receiving my physical copies, especially the Blu-ray disc...

Wonderful news. At last! Having been lucky enough to witness this in 2014 from a seat directly above Chris (and an array of laptops) in the Choir, I just know this is going to be superb. Physical release? PLEASE (..and "thank you")!!

It will, and more importantly you will. Take a break - if you can - soon and you'll amaze yourself just how quickly you'll bounce back! Shallow side-note: you do look incredibly cute in this pic. Just try not to make a habit of it! Sending hugs from the other side of the pond.

..guys, you were absolutely A-M-A-Z-I-N-G last night. Another great show following your triumph at the Royal Albert Hall which I also had the privilege to witness. Thank you so much and long may you continue!
