John Eliot Gardiner’s Springhead Constellation – his successor to the Monteverdi orchestras – was supposed to make its debut tonight at Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie.
But their flight was delayed by bad weather at London’s Heathrow airport, putting the concert in jeoprady. When we last heard, the concert had been put back by an hour as the audience hung patiently around the hall.
We’re awaiting updates.
