It's been wonderful having time to work on new material again between my recent tours. My Music Patrons have already been hearing about this for months, so I want to share with the rest of you on here that I look forward to playing you music from my solo cello album "Notan" this September.

You can become one of my patrons on Music Patron to gain more insight and be involved with my compositions, otherwise I hope to see you on my UK tour! πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

what a beautiful photo πŸ™‚

Beautiful portrait!😘

Hey Joe....thought I'd say hi. The fake Jo sent me a message on your Twitter account last week asking me if I was gonna get serious and talk to her the right way...lmao. So...I texted her an apologetic response to see if I could "reel her in." πŸ˜† 🀣 πŸ˜‚ 😹 πŸ˜† 🀣 Are you ever going to perform in my country? What's that? Only if Trump keels over? Totally understand πŸ˜† 🀣 πŸ˜‚

Bristol for us, can't wait to hear the new music !

You’re genuinely my favourite Cellist, even with all the others that I love.

Any approximate idea of a release date?

Aspetto con ansia... complimenti per la foto è un caro abbraccio da Verona..italy dear Jo

What a wonderful photo 😍

Beautiful soul

You are so timeless Jo ♥️πŸ₯°βœ¨

Okay, not only your cello and music are beautiful😏

See you in Leicester πŸ™ Jo Quail - The Big Difference, Leicester

I'll see you in either Manchester or Leicester! Looking forward to it.

Is it possible to buy Jo Quail ticket for Glasgow and not festival one?

We will see you in Bristol, looking forward to it! 🎻😁✌️

Looks like I MIGHT be seeing you in both Glasgow in Edinburgh...

Damn. Just moved from Edinburgh and you play a gig there at a hugely cool venue. May have to come visit for that one.

Another event announcement of a very different nature today! I have been commissioned to write a piece to celebrate 700 years of the city of Enschede in the Netherlands.

On 29th November in Wilminktheater en Muziekcentrum Enschede, I will be accompanied by an 80-piece orchestra, and dear friends Jos Pijnappel, Maria Franz, Lucie Dehli, LEF - Lorenzo Esposito Fornasari, and Tom Atherton. We will perform Invocation/Supplication in full, Causleen's Wheel, a special arrangement of The Breathing Hand, and the brand new commissioned piece.

Throughout my career as a composer and performer, I have embarked on ambitious projects with choirs and orchestras across Europe, often alongside Jos, including our recent collaborations at Dunk!festival in Ghent with the Wilmink Project Orchestra (Stichting Wilmink Project Orkest) and for the Nationale Taptoe at Rotterdam Ahoy. However, nothing like this has been attempted before, so it will be a unique experience for all of us.

The idea for this concert originated from my commission, which prompted extensive research and explorations around the city. I aimed to create a musical reflection of its social evolution, from early farming communities through industrialisation to the present day, integrating all my experiences from my time spent in Enschede, ultimately crafting a vibrant tribute to the city's energy and heritage.

You can find the event link on the Concerts page of my website. Please do join us! xxx

I will be in very impressive company on Sunday 14th September! Absolutely delighted to be a part of Core The Festival during my UK headliner tour.

It's a great thing when people can appreciate the heaviness and power in music rooted in classical, pagan and folklore, so I'm pleased that the curators have included witches like me, Poor Creature and Mrs Frighthouse on this line-up πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€

You can find tickets on my website as usual πŸ₯° Thanks to Core. and Atonal Music Agency xxx
