There was a very strange occurrence during pianist Nicolas Hodges solo piano recital of Karlheinz Stockhausen’s Naturliche Dauern – the third hour of Klang – in St Paul’s Hall. Just towards the end of the first half of the concert the pianist is required to recite a short text, which Nic did – however immediately back came a voice in reply in what sounded like perfect Hebrew. A woman’s voice - so spontaneous and in perfect time with the piece. Everyone thought it must be part of the piece and it was only after the concert that I found out that Nic was as surprised as anyone else. No-one seemed to see or notice who had spoken the words! Very spooky!

John Tilbury’s concert of Cardew is sold out! John of course plays beautifully however perhaps the real highlight for everyone is his on stage talk immediately afterwards.
