I was back at Sage Gateshead last night for the opening night of the Royal Northern Sinfonia season, which I reviewed for Bachtrack:

One thing I didn’t mention in my review was an amusing programme translation error, where someone was being too literal. Apparently we will awake from the dead at at the sound of the last trombone. For the trombone shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible.
I’ve known too many trombone players not to find this idea childishly hilarious.
