‘Dear Children of the Future, We Hope your World is Green’ - the voices of Campie PS pupils, composed with Moira Morrison and Jen Hill during Let’s Make an Opera for @ELCArtsService. Listen, hear and let’s make changes! @ELCouncil @WWFScotland @whatsonatcampie @LammermuirFest
A powerful message of hope for all, a plea for a better future, written by Moira Morrison and Jen Hill with the pupils of @Burgh_Primary on our Let’s Make an Opera programme with @ELCArtsService - listen to them and let’s make a change!!! @ELCouncil @GreenpeaceUK @CreativeScots
This is utterly beautiful - thank you @Loretto_RC for your environmental message to everyone.

“Being able to share the best world-class music-making with audiences not residing in our cities, but in rural areas, is a really important part of our nation's cultural fabric, an aspect we must support and nurture….”
Exclusive: Pressure mounts on “dysfunctional” Creative Scotland over treatment of award-winning classical music festival as James MacMillan & Nicola Benedetti join chorus of criticism. scotsman.com/whats-on/arts-a… @LammermuirFest

We've loved working with @ELCouncil Instrumental Music Service on big, bold and exciting projects in the past, but without @CreativeScots support the #LammermuirFestival's future is under threat. Read our open letter to find out more: lammermuirfestival.co.uk/ope…
ALT "In the past two years the opportunities that Lammermuir Festival have offered our young people have been simply unimaginable. The vision and ambition from Lammermuir Festival in delivering these large scale opportunities has been ineffable and I’m very excited about what the future may hold... ...I feel incredibly fortunate to have such an inspiring festival taking place in the local community, bringing world class performers to our doorsteps and ensuring classical music remains accessible through their community-focussed work in our communities. This is a festival that needs to be enjoyed and celebrated by future generations." Jonathan Gawn, Team Manager at East Lothian Council Instrumental Music Service
