#tbt to this day last year when once again I saw that view of that one place in the world that will always be home. I have no idea when I’ll be able to go back again but I do know that as soon as it is possible, I’ll be there. Montréal, tu me manques toujours #tbt #noplacelikehome #maville #view #vue
Keep a seat at the table for me. I’ll be back soon, I promise #keephope #dontgiveup #betterfuture #keepgoing
Souvenirs of a year that didn’t turn out the way anyone would have liked. I thought long and hard about posting this but actually it’s a reminder of not giving up, of making the very most of life within the rules, and of the centrality and importance of art. I’ve had some really, really dark moments this year and I know that those months where I was able to deplace myself were literal lifesavers. The skies are full of clouds right now but there are glimmers of hope and, as I always say, as humans all we have is hope. I miss being able to see and hug my friends, miss my freedom of movement. The light at the end of the tunnel is in sight and brighter days will come, eventually, even if they seem very distant right now #dontgiveup #betterdayswillcome #keephope #makethemostofit
Received a reminder that it’s now 10 years since I started the site. In the last decade I’ve seen some incredible shows, visited all the world’s major houses & sat down to interview some of the greatest singers of today. It’s been one hell of a ride and while I wouldn’t have wanted to celebrate the 10th anniversary watching a show from my couch it’s still one hell of a milestone. Here’s to the next 10 years. #opera #operatravelling #10yearanniversary
On this #worldoperaday a view of the beautiful auditorium of the @staatsoperhamburg a house that’s always a pleasure to visit. Right now so many houses are shuttered and artists unable to work. Yet we need live opera more than ever. #opera #keephope
More fall colours in Hamburg #fall #automne #herbst
