Name me a better conductor from these Isles. I’ll wait.

Huge loss to the London Symphony Orchestra

The musician's departure is considered a blow for Britain's classical music scene.

John Eliot Gardiner will always be my favourite for his Baroque brilliance, but Rattle is far more influential.

The future of orchestras and choirs is looking bleak at the moment. Hopefully we come to our senses soon.

John Elliot Gardiner , pisses all over him, not only that In his spare time, Gardiner runs an organic farm at Springhead , which was established by his great uncle, composer Henry Balfour Gardiner. His continued involvement in this project has earned him the nickname 'Uphill Gardiner' as a consequence of his unorthodox farming methods.
