Obituary (in German)
faz.net/aktuell/feuilleton/b…
Very sad news. A great loss of a great composer. With condolences to his family and friends.
My tribute to Peterlee, the town of my childhood: Zechstein, performed by the oboist Christopher Redgate. The Zechstein Sea connected the North East to Europe in the Permian period about 250 million years ago - a period of extreme global warming. youtube.com/watch?v=_zu5v-z2…
A detour in our journey from Durham to Tynemouth to see the Apollo Pavilion at Peterlee, the work of Victor Pasmore. Good reason for Britten’s Young Apollo @BBCRadio3 Breakfast tmr.

Goldsmiths is seriously under threat, as are various other arts and humanities institutions. Our SMT is proposing 133 academic redundancies. Join the fight to resist - please retweet.

Standing ovation for Arditti Quartet At Elbphilharmonie Hamburg. As there are no concerts for their 50th birthday in London this year, I had to travel to them…
Perhaps the CBSO is taking responsibility for compensating all the performers for use of their copyright, and paying composers for use of their work - e.g. through a PRS online license?

If I - a performer - want to share a clip from a concert with an ensemble, I have to get permission from all the players. If the piece is in copyright, there are big hoops (+ money) with publishers. How did we get from there to current discourse without any in between steps?
An excellent BBCSO concert. Looking forward to hearing the broadcast. Congratulations also to talks by Harriet Boyd-Bennett and Jonathan Cross, and to the GSMD students for the afternoon concert.
Thank you to all who joined us tonight at the Barbican for Total Immersion: Italian Radicals.
...especially to conductor Martyn Brabbins, soloists Anna Dennis, John Finden, @ndanielmusic, and @TomLessels – and to the @BBC_Singers.
This concert was recorded for broadcast and will be played on @BBCRadio3 on 1 July. It will also be available on @BBCSounds.

Congratulations Lara. Looking forward to your new work on 25 August.
Really excited to announce that I've been working on a song cycle for @AnuKomsi @oramsa @RCMLondon @Taideyliopisto, commissioned by @bbcproms with a follow-up performance at @helsinkifest – this has been a very fun piece to write!
I remember a performance that he gave on the ShoZyg at Durham University while I was a teenager. Opening one’s ears to new possibilities…
Happy birthday to Hugh Davies (1943-2005) who would have been 81 today. Amazing composer and pioneer of electronic and improvised music; also founder of Goldsmiths EMS.
I had the privilege of working with him a few times.
