‘In conversation’ with @antoniopappano_ @FaberBooks
I’ve known him for nearly 20 years when I was lucky enough to work on many @rbo_org productions with him at the helm. One of the great #conductors - sublime communicator. Interviewing him was no challenge but an honour.

Happy #NewReleaseFriday! Gustav Holst's anniversary has also shone a light on his daughter Imogen. An accomplished composer herself, and pivotal in founding @nmcrecordings, who celebrate their own 35th birthday with her orchestral music. Try them here ▶️ spoti.fi/400asdn

A wonderful comment from a student in a rehearsal of the @rodolfusfound Choral Course, seeing Holst Nunc Dimittis for the first time: “Oh… Gustav Holst? I haven’t heard of him. Is he related to Imogen Holst?” 👏

All schools (including academies) required to follow the national curriculum - this means ALL schools must teach music. It’s a no-brainer, of course, but worth celebrating nonetheless. schoolsweek.co.uk/labour-edu…

Many congratulations to the new Labour Govt. Please keep listening to @ISM_music and those who work in music. Together we can sort out the huge post Brexit challenges of performing in Europe, music ed, the urgent need to scrap the EBacc and much more. @KeeleyMP @bphillipsonMP
