He is particularly known for his long-standing artistic collaboration with his late wife, the soprano Dame Joan Sutherland. Originally from Sydney, Richard was awarded the CBE in the Queen’s Silver Jubilee year.
Richard tells us how enormously impressed he is by the quality of Loder’s music, and he is greatly looking forward to working on our project.
