Tomorrow is a double performance day: a lunchtime concert with the Dufay Collective at the Banqueting House, Whitehall (which has been hit by chaos and confusion because our singer has had to pull out with laryngitis, and now our replacement singer may have to pull out as well because of a family emergency, and we're not quite sure what we're going to do tomorrow!), and an evening background music gig at a party. I don't do background music if I can avoid it, but this is partly a favour for a friend. And it's not just any background music gig: it's at City Hall, with stunning views of the river, and the mayor and several Members of Parliament will be there. So it might just be interesting.....
