Another music organisation folds due to lack of funds because ppl fail to realise the part music plays in a civilised society. Wherever you live, in whatever way you can, speak out in support of high-quality music-making esp for young people - PLEASE! @ISM_music @MakingMusic_UK
Saddened and very surprised at the closure of @Voices_Found: voices.org.uk/news/thank-you
Thank you @singspeirs and @BethHHallett together with Ruairi Bowen and @HuskinsonOssian for wonderful singing @RoyalAlbertHall. And to all the wonderful people who purchased programmes and helped to raise almost £8K for @RSMusicians. Roll on Messiah from Scratch on 10 November!

Two managements can play at that game @ClassicFM! Thanks to @ReallyBigChorus singers and English Festival Orchestra players for the unexpected start to Mozart's Requiem this afternoon with a surprise rendering of Hallelujah/Happy Birthday for Brian Kay's 80th birthday.
Orchestra expertly pranks Sir Karl Jenkins with ‘Happy Birthday’ 🥹
At Classic FM Live, the @RSNO elegantly transitioned from ‘Palladio’ into a triumphant birthday surprise (✍️ @conductorben) before @XanderArmstrong @KlassMyleene brought out a cake for his 80th birthday year.

Another highly successful show for TRBC in Nicosia last night, boosted by players (and singers!) from the Cyprus Youth Symphony Orchestra. Let's not forget the brilliant behind-the-scenes work of @STGroup1955: immaculate organisation and in control of every crisis.

It's concert day at Strovolos Theatre Nicosia. The 90-strong Cyprus Youth Symphony Orchestra and their 24 singers plus 125 TRBC singers. The largest gathering of classical musicians ever heard in concert in Cyprus. Here in rehearsal with @EmilyGrayMezzo and maestro Brian Kay.

Shout-out for the Royal Berkshire Hospital Mozart Choir, some of whom don't read music, who have worked their scrubs off to learn Mozart's requiem and sing it with us @royalalberthall on 12 May. Huge achievement. Take note @BBCBerkshire
