5 h. ago Henry Arundell leads Bath to nervy win against Sale as Borthwick takes note

Bath 28-16 SaleHosts made to work for win by stubborn Sharks sideAlmost everything is going swimmingly for Bath. At long last their long-awaited stadium redevelopment looks likely to happen and, on the field, the champions are two from two after the first couple of weekends. With Finn Russell due back in action next week to pick up the fly-half baton, it is going to take a seriously good side to steal their crown.On a wet and windy night in Somerset, even so, they were made to work extremely hard for it by a stubborn Sale team who stuck in the fight and refused to go away. It was only with three minutes left that Max Ojomoh slid in to score his side’s bonus point try and maintain his squad’s perfect start to the campaign. Continue reading...

19 h. ago Bournemouth’s Adrien Truffert: ‘It is important to do something outside of football, change your mindset’

The Cherries’ full-back on why intensity is key to his side’s success, learning English early and receiving a French knighthoodAdrien Truffert has form for hitting the ground running. At Rennes, the club he joined at 13 and spent a decade at until leaving for Bournemouth in the summer, his debut arrived as a substitute against Monaco and culminated in him teeing up the equaliser with a wicked left-foot cross and then scoring a stoppage-time winner. Aged 18, Truffert sent a shot underneath Benjamin Lecomte, the opposition goalkeeper who visits Bournemouth with Fulham on Friday. “I ran off celebrating and slid on my knees,” Truffert says, “like you dream of doing as a kid after scoring your first goal.”Truffert has excelled for Bournemouth from the moment he contained Mohamed Salah on his first outing in a fearless team performance at Liverpool – where he also outshone his predecessor at left-back Milos Kerkez – and has played every minute in the Premier League this season.

35 h. ago Christian Tetzlaff: Elgar and Adès Violin Concertos album review – refreshing and exhilarating

Tetzlaff/BBC Philharmonic/Storgårds(Ondine)The violinist’s performance of these two concertos is energetic but also thoughtful, with the BBC Phil sounding electricNot everyone who loves Elgar’s Violin Concerto is going to love Christian Tetzlaff’s new recording of it, but nobody will find it bland. What’s perhaps most striking is the pace of the performance, which knocks minutes off anybody else’s: Tetzlaff could have packed up and left the building by the time, say, Vilde Frang gets offstage. Egged on by the conductor John Storgårds – who has the BBC Philharmonic sounding electric – Tetzlaff often runs towards moments of burgeoning intensity, rather than broadening out into them, and the effect is exhilarating. The downside is that some of the more densely woven passages sound fragmented this way; Tetzlaff is like a cat playing with a mouse, continually tensing, ready to pounce.It’s not by any means all rushed, though. Sometimes Tetzlaff is introspective where other violinists are ...
