Music on the Quantocks 🎵 the early music republic

Not all classical music concerts are staid and stuffy. Ours, in rural Somerset featuring world-class musicians, are always packed and buzz with atmosphere!

are you free in Somerset on Saturday ?

[Sam Jackson @classicjacko]

Sometimes, a performance just stays with you for hours afterwards. @igorpianist at @wigmore_hall this lunchtime was exactly that. If you didn’t hear it live on @BBCRadio3 with @PetrocTrelawny, do head to @BBCSounds. You won’t be disappointed.

Key Changes @BBCRadio3’s Essential History of Classical Music with @GillianMoore10 and @sixteenthCgirl Episode 9 - 1564: The Queen’s Gambit, 1pm Sat 30 May or listen now @BBCSounds Producer Chris Taylor https://t.co/ZBJH8F3Avi

Let's enjoy the extraordinary artistic performance "Hands off!" (1976), a testament to Victor Borge's innate talent for transforming academic music into subtle laughter, in collaboration with the outstanding opera singer Marilyn Mulvey.

Morning. It’s a bit parky again but we’ll be getting super cool with the Playlist this morning @BBCRadio3 that launches with music by the great Miles Davis on the day he would have turned 100. It doesn’t have to be jazz but maybe it should swing! Join me for the fun at 9.30.

[Petroc Trelawny @PetrocTrelawny]

a hot day but lovely and cool at Wigmore where the Modigliani and Leonkoro Quartets play Mendelssohn’s Octet, Turina and Schulhoff to start the hall’s 125th birthday celebration. Live at Radio 3 at 1pm.

This isn't just a story about Farage and his sudden interest in the deregulation of crypto currency.
But starts with Boris Johnson..
Perhaps Ben Habib was right all along?
You've got to take a read of this extraordinary investigative piece by @thenerve_news

[Ian Skelly @Ianskellyradio3]

It’s a glorious summer’s day in London town and across much of the UK. If you want a classical music sound track for your morning, join me for Essential Classics @BBCRadio3, not least to help build a playlist for a Bank Holiday. I’m back on air from 9.30.

At their New Year's Concert in 2009, the @Vienna_Phil invited @DBarenboim to conduct the festivities — leading the orchestra in a delightful performance of Haydn's Symphony No. 45, known as the "Farewell" Symphony for the surprising twist seen here… https://t.co/vvIYs8iIPM

Fantastic to see this @nerve_news investigation trending.

The crypto millions fuelling Britain’s far-right turn (the exact same playbook as Trump) requires much, much more scrutiny.

[Carole Cadwalladr @carolecadwalla]

NEW: The Crypto Connection. @thenerve_news brings you…Part 1 of The Harbourne Receipts.

A forensic examination of the cryptobillionaire’s donations & Nigel Farage’s crypto announcements.

And guess what? There’s a pattern. Starting with the now infamous £5m gift.

I'm worried that Trump will launch a war on Cuba, to distract attention from his war on Iran, which distracted attention from his war on Venezuela, which distracted attention from the Epstein files
