The award-winning English cellist Richard Harwood is playing out his final month in the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra before making a change of direction. He writes:

A couple of months ago, I reached the sad decision to leave this wonderful family of friends and colleagues in order to focus on a range of other musical activities. It’s been a wonderful 7 years.
I look forward to our tour of China with Vasily Petrenko next week where I also get the opportunity to be soloist for two of the nights in Beijing and Shanghai performing Tan Dun’s Suite from “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”.
