It was a peak experience to teach alongside Kaija Saariaho, Francesco Filidei and Martin Brody at this year’s Etchings Festival. Getting to know these wonderful people so well, under such extraordinary conditions and in an amazing part of France was really a dream. Etchings is now 11 years old and it keeps developing in beautiful ways.
