Tea with Netty

Conductor Dinis Sousa

January 17, 2025 • Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment • Episode 59

In the first episode of 2025, conductor Dinis Sousa joins Netty for a cuppa and a chat in London before he embarks on his touring adventures.

Currently Principal Conductor of the Royal Northern Sinfonia, Dinis has a fascinating journey that took him from filmmaker to pianist and finally conductor. His story is inspiring and demonstrates the rewards of pursuing your dreams. Dinis also shares his excitement about joining us as guest artist in June at the Southbank Centre, where he will conduct Elgar's Enigma Variations for the first time.
