Of course she's brilliant and working with her is the greatest blessing a scruffy music teacher like me could dream of. But Lucy is what happens when you make instrumental tuition available to disadvantaged children. Help us to get this message across to those who decide.

Tonight was the most wonderful evening of beautiful music. The best concert I have been to at the Cathedral since I moved here 24 years ago. Bravo and thank you.

Welcome @ExeterPhil choir, @hismajsagbutts, soloists @HowardIonascu and not least our own Devon County Junior Choir to this evening’s stunning and moving performance of #Monteverdi Vespers. Thank you all for transporting us - for a moment - to the glories of Venice! #music

Threat to YMCA funding Do please see this video made by @YMCAExeter about devastating proposed #cuts to the services it offers vulnerable young people, especially when homelessness is on the rise again (ymcaexeter.org.uk/helpstopth…). The consultation ends on 19 April.

Together with fellow representatives of the UK’s freelance professional choral ensembles, we’ve sent this letter to the BBC to express our dismay at the decision to disband the @BBCSingers. #WeAreTheBBCSingers

We also deplore the decision to disband the BBC Singers & cut jobs in BBC orchestras in England. There'll be devastating repercussions for professional musicians and amateur choirs. Please consider joining us in urging a rethink of this damaging decision. change.org/p/stop-the-planne…
