Join us for another Spectator Writers’ Dinner with Richard Bratby, cat lover, steam enthusiast, cultural historian and longtime classical music and opera critic for The Spectator.
Richard will chat to us about the musical history of Spectator HQ – 22 Old Queen Street, the former home of arts patron Frank Schuster and frequented by the likes of Sir Edward Elgar, Gabriel Fauré and Sir Adrian Boult – the state of British opera and why modern opera productions are so weird, over a fine four-course dinner washed down with wines supplied by Château Léoube, introduced by drinks editor Jonathan Ray.
