A long shot but we got on a train at Surbiton (final stop was Guilford). It was the 17.06 from Waterloo. Anyway, there was no one in the 1st carriage but there was a bag of presents, all for ‘Holly & Dan’. Pls retweet if you can, hopefully these can find the recipient 🤞❤️
The final composer award goes to Karine Polwart and Pippa Murphy. Their work explores landscape and memory, mythology and scientific inquiry, via folk song, spoken word, multi-layered sound design, electronics, and formal orchestration

What a delight to sing “Bridghe” last night at @GSAChoir in the presence of the composer (or should I say @ComposeherUK !) @pippamurph. It is an incredibly beautiful piece. I fell even more in love with it.
Here’s Pippa in video with lyricist @IAMKP
