Lots of big thank yous after last night - the ultra-adaptable musicians of @manc_collective for their wizardry, @vijayiyer for guiding us through, @wigmore_hall for pairing us together in the first place! And @RichmoMusic for a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ summation

We were waiting for the lunchtime concert to end for load-in and I couldn't let this go without a 📸 - everything in its right place etc.

It's not often you get to be immersed in a musician's sound world for an entire evening - I'm so excited for @manc_collective to be collaborating with @vijayiyer for our @wigmore_hall on Monday, what a way to start the season wigmore-hall.org.uk/whats-on…

What a fantastic interview with @TomFHerring by @hwfmorris - made me pause for thought! I'm really proud of the Rothko Chapel collab between @manc_collective & @SansaraChoir earlier this year

Can't believe @BBCRadio3 have put Norman Lebrecht back on air - he has caused hurt and distress to many people's lives through his blog and has been rewarded with his own programme

Really puzzled why this article is attracting such praise - though especially sloppy is the use of the term ‘administrator’ as a kind of folk-devil/bogeyman. A real lack of industry knowledge on show (the rest is just the usual stuff in The Critic about the wokes)

A brave article that identifies precisely zero real problems facing classical music (or the arts more generally), and makes absolutely no concrete suggestions for fixing any of those problems. But it’s big on hyper-reactionary vibes, so I’m sure it’ll do well.

It's sort of extraordinary how quickly commentary from a certain cohort of people on ACE has moved from frustration dissatisfaction to embracing calls to dismantle it

Who will be brave enough to follow Wigmore Hall and turn off the Arts Council’s tap? My column today

This type of article gets published every few months - blandly railing against things not being how they were, offering no meaningful insight into why that might be the case and vaguely suggesting that standing up for classical music 'on its own terms' will fix everything

Anyway lots of classical music folk seemed to have enjoyed the article - for me if you describe an art-form confronting its relationship with (in)equality as 'very edgy' then you deserve to get called out

If you want a rallying cry that's actually insightful, here's a great @tribunemagazine article from a few months ago by @JakeyTrelease - on music, venues, their place in communities contemporary culture tribunemag.co.uk/2023/09/you…
