What a pleasure to be part of the Wilmink Theatre's opening season concerts - super to play for you, to hear some of the other extraordinary and very exciting productions coming up, and have a quick chat about my cello too. Wilmink Theatre is the home of 'my' orchestra as I now adopt them (The Wilmink Project Orkest, so not 'mine' at all but I feel so very attached to them all!) and you'll remember we performed Supplication and Causleen's Wheel at Dunk Festival this year. The whole experience was so inspiring, and I'm yet again utterly inspired by the breadth of productions that the theatre commissions and/or creates, and the enthusiasm and support that the audiences bring, not just in Enschede but much further afield too. The Wilmink Theatre is a place and space that brings such a large community together, and there is boundless energy for new ideas and projects, standing ovation to you all.

I'll be heading back again to Holland next week, this time to Rotterdam and the moment has finally come where Maria Franz, Jos Pijnappel and I will take to the stage at the Ahoy and perform my arrangement of Macha with our two stunning orchestras, our choir and our 10 percussionists - stand by for multiple posts about this one!

Love Jo x

FOUR BARS of my new album! This is from a post I made yesterday for my Music Patron subscribers, and if you'd like to join me on this platform I'd be honoured. You are already incredibly supportive, and if you want to be part of the inner circle as one of you called it, well this is next level stuff! You get to hear new music way ahead of time, see the working and writing process, scoring, rehearsals, all sorts of other BTS things too. I am finding it incredibly inspiring to have my team of patrons with me, it gives me purpose and focus, and to those of you already on board thank you with my whole heart. Let's all of us carry on making our own art, whatever form it takes, for the love of art and for passion and for pure joy, and keep the wheel turning!

See you soon, love Jo x

For those of you in or near Oldenzaal Muzikaal Festival in Holland I'll be there on Friday, playing 3 x 30 minute sets in the most beautiful location! I've played this festival before and it's such a delight to be returning, I look forward to seeing you again. I'm planning 3 different sets, and I'll have both cellos, so let's see what unfolds ... Free entry and loads of wonderful music to hear, a superb atmosphere too, I'm so excited to be back!

In other news, the scores for my new album are almost finished, if you are with me on Music Patron stand by for another update! Sadly the track titles are nowhere near finalised... some classic working titles in there! And some random tubular bells... 😂If you'd like to join my team you are warmly welcomed xx musicpatron.com/composer/jo-quail/

Hope you're all having a super weekend, see you soon, Jo x
