Munich debut for Downton Abbey composer

Munich debut for Downton Abbey composer

The Munich Radio Orchestra is performing the Downton Abbey soundtrack tomorrow at 7 pm in concert and on stream.

The piano soloist is John Lunn, the Scottish composer who wrote the series’ background music.

The post Munich debut for Downton Abbey composer appeared first on Slippedisc.
