I sang Bruckner’s Christus Factus Est at school in the 1970s & have never forgotten the thrill of being in amongst those intense harmonies. I fear not many schools would attempt it now. Lovely to hear it again thank you @BBCRadio3 @KateMolleson

@PetrocTrelawny Just turned the volume up on In Tune to savour fully Christus Factus Est. 🙏🏻

Why isn’t @BBCRadio3 even mentioning this? Now all those irritating Proms trails have finished, you must have space?!
Exciting day today! BBC Young Musician starts on TV tonight at 7.30pm on BBC Four. I’m so happy to be presenting the competition that has opened so many doors for me. The young players are really special this year - tune in to see their talent + dedication!

#ROHMacMillan Such a privilege to see this trio of ballets, so very different from one another yet clearly by the same choreographer. A superb evening enhanced by the additional interviews and VT (more than adequate compensation for not being there in person!).

#ROHMacMillan Relishing this opportunity in Inverness to see these three ballets for the first time.

Delighted to hear the whole Capriol Suite on Breakfast this morning 🙏🏻 @PetrocTrelawny @BBCRadio3
I remember dancing a vigorous Branle to this, astonished that Warlock’s serene Pieds en l’air theme had started out as this lively frolic.

⁦@PetrocTrelawny⁩ ⁦@BBCRadio3⁩ More kannel please! Loved the piece you played today. I’d never previously heard of it but have now downloaded Anna-Liisa Eller’s album & found her on YouTube. youtu.be/0UvHRS5lM8o

Recently finished listening to Len Deighton’s Bernard Samson trilogy of trilogies read by @LaileyJames & Mick Herron’s Bad Actors read by Sean Barrett. Narration of the highest order; truly rare and to be treasured.

So much to enjoy as I catch up on the bits of #3Breakfast @BBCRadio3 I missed earlier. Learning of litui which were new to me. Really appreciated @KateMolleson ‘s Scottish coastal weather forecast circuit - an effective way of gathering in her more remote audience.

21 June can be glorious here, but not this year. There’s a handsome headland and Orkney out there somewhere. Luckily, your Solstice selection has brightened this driech morn!

Loved hearing Shearing on #3Breakfast this morning, thank you. Could you find a slot sometime for a track from his album Blues Alley Jazz with the bassist Brian Torff? @PetrocTrelawny @BBCRadio3

Appreciation for championing Louis Couperin preludes from a long term fan. @BBCRadio3

Lovely to hear the Scriabin. Only time I've heard this live was in the mid 1970s when a talented girl learned it at short notice for a concert at my sister's school: she was meant to be playing a concerto movement with the orchestra but had broken her right arm. @PetrocTrelawny
Oh! The Slow Train! My favourite F&S mini masterpiece. Thank you @PetrocTrelawny @BBCRadio3
