Whatever your political views, how wonderful to see a senior frontbencher precede their Q&A at #abo24 by playing some solo Bach for us all. Thank you, @ThangamMP 👏 👏

[Meurig Bowen @MeurigB]

Proud to be announcing applications for the next cohort in @BrittenSinfonia ‘s professional development programme for composers. With programme directors @DaniHoward6 and @MZevGordon

Goodbye Russia (Rachmaninoff in Exile) justly recognised for the terrific, moving read it is.

Delighted to celebrate with Brett Dean tonight @IvorsAcademy #TheIvorsClassicalAwards when his Cello Concerto for @albancello won the Orchestral Composition Award.

[Janis Susskind @JanisSusskind]

I couldn't agree more!

[Janis Susskind @JanisSusskind]

It was a pleasure celebrating Robin Holloway's 80th last night with friends, fellow composers & @Boosey colleagues. And look at that cake!

[Emma Kerr @Boosey_Emma]

That was just a terrific Prom tonight ⁦@BrittenSinfonia⁩ and what an audience reaction - much deserved. Baroque’n roll.

Here’s some behind the scenes photos of our Proms rehearsals this week showing all our players sharing ideas, with a lot of laughter along the way!

Such a joy to see the 159th performance of this iconic production of The Rake's Progress @glyndebourne tonight in the presence of David Hockney and John Cox. Robin Ticciati & @LPOrchestra a pure delight plus splendid cast.

[John Adams @HellTweet]

Hmm...I may get turned back at Heathrow for this, but it had to be said. Proud to join over 700 other composers in this infuriating protest.

[Thomas Gould @ThomasGouldVLN]

What a terrible chain of recent events in the UK Arts. Heart goes out to all groups who have suffered as result of Arts Council and BBC cuts. We at @BrittenSinfonia have launched a campaign where you can put your money (however small) where your mouth is, should you wish to. ♥️

Exclusive: the ACE based its "no growth in opera" charge on figures which national bodies and arts bosses have called "dangerous" and "distorting". //Thread

We never took our NPO status for granted, but like many of you we are mystified by the 100% cut to our Arts Council grant. We're proud of our excellence and our track record of deep engagement with East of England communities. With your support, we will continue to make our case.

"Oh we miss him"

@SirSimonRattle talks to @PetrocTrelawny about paying tribute to Sir Harrison Birtwistle at tonight's #BBCProms concert on BBC Four & @BBCiPlayer.

Utterly captivating final performance today of Ana Sokolovic's Svadba @WaterperryOpera by @ladavalesova & 6 fabulous singers directed by @rebecca_meltzer. This production MUST travel further!

[Janis Susskind @JanisSusskind]

Thames Water will apparently "be back" to staunch the flow.

Drought? What drought?
