Recent projects
Nottingham Chamber Music Festival – Online performance with 2 To Link duo.

Husband-and-wife team Adam Römer and Miki Takahashi performed in the violin room at Turner Violins, a string specialist showroom and workshop in Beeston.

Francis recently put together this recorded performance of Keiser’s neglected but wonderfully dramatic setting of the Passion according to St Mark, commissioned to mark Good Friday 2021. This was our first long-form video project.
