A privilege to contribute to the classical CD column at @theartsdesk . Graham Rickson does the heavy lifting, I get to write about some super discs - like Purcell and his contemps gloriously sung by @helencharlston on BIS theartsdesk.com/classical-mu…

The Royal Family uses dangling modifiers. 😱🤓
Hosted for the first time in Europe, The King has visited @SXSWLndn, a culture, technology and creativity festival in Shoreditch, East London. Originating in Austin, Texas, the festival aims to serve as a platform to showcase the future of the creative industries, supporting emerging artists and innovative projects. His Majesty also popped into Old Spitalfields Market to meet locals and speak to stall holders working the market’s ‘Antiques Thursday’.

I'm really missing Martin Hummel @UbuntuMusicJazz . His death, far too soon, is a huge loss for the entire UK jazz scene. I wrote about him for the German magazine @JAZZTHETIK in 2021. In sadness. jazzthetik.de/kolumne-11-12-…
