Stunning concert from @BrittenSinfonia in @stedscath. Pärt, Shostakovich & Tavener have never sounded so fresh. Such visceral playing from all (especially soloists Zoë Beyers & Miranda Dale) with a fab new piece by @CherylHoad featuring glittering vibraphone from Owen Gunnell.

Mancunian fanboy moment: thanks to the backstage ⁦@DButcherHalle⁩ pass at ⁦@BridgewaterHall⁩, two Prog anoraks got to meet one of their non-classical heroes. Thanks @HackettOfficial for keeping the Genesis flame alive so brilliantly 50+ years on.

Such good news, and well deserved. Lovely to be reminded just now on @BBCInTune how fresh and invigorating Pound of Cure is. Glad we had the mics up in Milton Court last October.
Wahoo! Super happy to have been nominated for an Ivor Novello Award! 😄 Massive thanks to @IvorsAcademy / @PRSforMusic and of course to @BrittenSinfonia for their support and commissioning Pound of Cure 🧡 Big congrats to the other nominees too. 🙌 xx

Corrie Hermann last heard her father play his cello 85 yrs ago: he was murdered by Nazis and his cello lost. After years searching, I’ve found his #cello. Today Corrie, 92, hears it for the first time since she was 7 yrs old! Listen at 1:53:17! @BBCr4today bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0023f…
