The crisis facing musicology degrees is down to their commandeering and misrepresentation.
This used to be the most challenging degree in the humanities: science, art, language, physical technique. It should never be a soft option.

Release day on @ChandosRecords ! 10 months since our sessions with @fhvln @batonflipper and @BBCPhilharmonic and the result: simply splendid.
Special thanks to Mike George at the BBC Philharmonic and all the donors for their extraordinary goodwill.

Innate theatricality: composer @adriansutton definitively moves out of the theatre with a challenging yet engaging concerto for violinist Fenella Humphreys @fhvln, with @BBCPhilharmonic & Michael Seal @batonflipper on @ChandosRecords. My record review:
