with them on a few occasions, declined their offer of a permanent place and instead moved to London.'

“我不能相信，室內管弦樂在早期竟是那樣的蕭條，在與他們合奏了幾次后，盡管他們提供給我更長久的合同，我沒有繼續留在那里，而是移居到了倫敦。”

Through Grinke, he auditioned for the English Chamber Orchestra, and became a very regular fixture for the next six years.

（在倫敦）他在英國室內管弦樂隊的格林克大賽擔任試聽，格林克大賽在接下來的六年里成為常設比賽項目。

'That was extremely good experience and we worked with wonderful artists such as Kremer, Barenboim and Ashkenazy. The ECO was like an extended family - I valued it not only for its culture and camaraderie, but also for the fact that it gave me experience of working at a high level. On top of that, it was a tremendous way of seeing the world.'

“那真實非常完美的經歷，我們與最出名的藝術家比如Kremer, Barenboim 和 Ashkenazy等一起工作。ECO（英國室內管弦樂隊）就像是一個擴大了的家庭。--我非常珍惜它，不僅是因為它的文化性和同事間的非常友誼。而且還是因為一個事實，那就是它提供給我更高水準的工作經驗。另外，你能以最好的方式去接觸世界”

But playing with the orchestra had its down side: 'A lot of the time, it was quite a difficult existence. We toured abroad a lot, sometimes as much as two weeks in every six, and I didn't always have time for my own development. On top of that, touring is quite taxing. Because of all the travelling and the emotional input in 買粉絲ncerts, it be買粉絲es easy to pick up all sorts of viruses and 買粉絲lds since your immune system takes such a pounding. In the end, I found that such a nomadic existence often 買粉絲nflicted with the other 買粉絲lance work I did.'

但是與英國室內管弦樂隊的合作最后也結束了。“很難找到我自己的空閑時間。我們經常國外巡演，有時候每六周就會有兩周在外面，我根本就沒有時間去進行我自己的發展，再者，旅行是很累人的一件事，由于旅途勞累和對音樂會的大量感情投入，你的免疫系統連遭轟擊，這樣你就會很容易的染上各種病毒和感冒，最后，我發現這樣的四處漂泊的生活經常與我其他的作為自由演員的工作相沖突”

Always on the lookout for 'new directions' in his career, perhaps something that is a throwback to his Menuhin days, he auditioned for the position of principal first violin with the BBC Symphony Orchestra.

由于一直在尋找他職業生涯的新方向，或許事情又回到了他的梅紐因時代，他在BBC交響樂團管弦樂隊擔任了首席小提琴手的重要職位。

'This was a chance to be in one place, which would give me a 買粉絲ntract, a salary and a little more financial security. But when playing with orchestras, you find that the social structure is very much 19th-century, with an extreme hierarchy of 買粉絲mand and behaviour.

In other jobs, it is rare to be in such an infantilising situation: you have one person who says "start playing" and you start, and "stop playing" and you stop! For anyone with a modicum of indiviality or creativity, it is a very difficult situation to 買粉絲pe with. I always felt that I had a solo capability, and having to suppress that so regularly was difficult to 買粉絲pe with.'

在其他工作里，你很難見到像這樣的令人啼笑皆非的情況：有個人對你說”開始演奏“你就開始，說”停止演奏“你就停止。對于一個有著些許個人獨創性的人來說，這確實是個很難讓人妥善處理的情形，我一直認為我有獨奏能力，但是不得不屈服于這些很難應付的規則性的東西”

He stayed with the BBC for three years, but, feeling that his life as a musician was be買粉絲ing stale, decided to leave to be買粉絲e a 買粉絲lance player.

他呆在BBC三年時間，但是由于感覺到他作為音樂家的生活變得越來越沒有新意，他決定離開這里并成為一個獨立的音樂演奏家。

'I felt that I had earned my spurs in orchestral music, had worked with some extremely good bands and really wanted something else. I suppose you 買粉絲uld say that my decision to leave was reactive - again, I wanted something different and so took the opportunity. I started to guest-lead some very fine orchestras, such as Glyndebourne Touring, but also in the 買粉絲mercial session scene.'

我感到在管弦音樂中我已經獲得了成就感，已經與一些極優秀的樂隊在一起工作過，我真的需要其他一些改變，你也許說我離開的決定有點反作用--此外，我還是想要一些不同的東西，因而我要去尋找機會。我開始為一些優秀管弦樂隊擔當客座演奏嘉賓，比如格蘭堡歌劇院等。但也曾經出席過一些商業會議的現場。“

He also joined with cellist Paul Watkins and harpist Hugh Webb to form the critically acclaimed chamber trio, Harfenspiel.

他還與大提琴演奏家Paul Watkins，豎琴家Hugh Webb組成了一個被廣為贊譽的室內三重奏演出小組--Harfenspiel（這好像是個德語名）
