Dear Friends:
I was very interested to hear from you all and very happy you enjoyed our concerts. Anthony was also very interested to hear your comments and asked to be remembered to you, as well.
I am taking a little time off to return to Rome where I studied many years ago and so looking forward to revisiting many of the beautiful places I knew so well, and meeting the many friends and musicians who are still living there. It will be a journey of nostalgie du temps perdu.
So once again, greetings and many thanks from us both. I am so looking forward to seeing you all on our Autumn tour.
PATRICK.

Dear friends and all who sent me such lovely cards and birthday greetings:
I was deeply touched that so many remembered my birthday and went to the trouble of getting in touch; it meant a great deal to me.
I know you will understand if I am unable to answer each greeting individually, but to you all I say thank you so much, and to those who will be able to come to see us in October on our tour we will both be delighted to see you.
I am about to sail off on a cruise to the Bosphorus and the Ukraine. We have a lovely selection of musicians on this classical music cruise: a string quartet, a brass ensemble, 4 singers, and a classical guitarist.
We leave from Southampton, calling to Lisbon, Athens, Istanbul, Yalta Ukraine, Cairo Egypt, Palma Majorca, Malta, and then back to England just in time to set off with Anthony for our U.S. tour, so it is a busy time ahead.
Once again dear friends, thanks so much for your friendship and see you in October.
Much love to you all,
PATRICK.

Dear Friends:
I will be doing a radio interview in Minneapolis when I get there in two weeks time. It will be with a very important classical music programme which goes all over America. They have 2.5 million listeners; it is the leading classical radio programme in the States. I believe I'll be doing a television interveiw, as well!
The Gilbert and Sullivan is creating quite a stir, it is opening a new theatre. I have already done a number of radio interviews.
Much Love....Patrick
Webmaster's Note: We are attempting to secure copies of these interviews for Patrick's Official website. Stay tuned....

Public radio interview will be aired September 10 or 11 (we will keep you posted.) There will be two portions to the interview: one regional focusing upon the local G&S production, one national focusing upon the influences of G&S on music and theatre.
He will also appear on KARE 11's Showcase Minnesota on 9/10/09 at 10AM

Of some interest is that I will be in France during January doing Master Classes and Lectures on Italian and French repertoire with students in various Music Academies, and looking forward to it.

To all the friends and fans whose lovely messages and greetings I received at Christmas ~ may I say how touched and grateful I was to partake in their kind and loving greetings of good will. Although I haven't been able to answer each and every one individually, I am very touched and grateful to have received such warm and touching sentiments from across the sea. May I wish one and all every blessing and good fortune for the year ahead.
Patrick
