I don’t know why the formality, it seems I have known you all my life!
I just finished listening to the live broadcast of your Durham Concerto. Words fail me really.
Funny old world; here I sit in my basement with an ocean of time and distance between us and yet I have, for the past few minutes and hours, been transported to a place that I know and love.

What a brilliant performance and wonderful music.

Thank God for the reanimation of the Concerto for group and orchestra. Thank God for your strength of character to be able to walk away from Deep Purple. Without that, we may never have witnessed the reincarnation of Jon Lord, the composer of Music.
For true connoisseurs of Deep Purple in all its guises, it adds a more ethereal yet weighty texture and flavour to an already over abundant cornucopia of delights.
I’m really looking forward to the cd/dvd of this event. I equally look forward to each and everyone of your future projects.
Thank you for all the beautiful music, long may it continue.
