Time for another update and I’m delighted and relieved to say we actually have plenty of recent activity to share with you!

The main event for Tenebrae during these first months of autumn was the filming of ‘Tenebrae Unlocked’, a series... continued

In these worrying times it’s quite a challenge to write a blog and make it all breezy and positive. I’d love to tell everyone that we have a full schedule of concerts up our sleeve, but of course that isn’t the case – for reasons o... continued
