#Janacek 's wonderous score for #TheMakropulosCase making its #RoyalOperaHouse London @rbo_org debut tonight - composed and completed at this piano in Janacek's home in #Brno, #Czechia one hundred years ago - 1925.

[Peter McHugh @NorthBank98]

A joy to hear #Janacek 's wonderous score for #TheMakropulosCase played and sung brilliantly for the first time at the Royal Opera London @rbo_org. Bravo conductor #JakubHrůša , soprano #AusrineStundyte singers and players one and all. And what a score it is!

[Peter McHugh @NorthBank98]

Going above and beyond....Bravo!

In the latest issue of Private Eye (thanks to a friend for sharing) - "So farewell then, Science in Action..." Wishing I could tell EJ Thribb that reports of the programme's demise are premature, but that may depend on support from outside the BBC. ☹️

#Janacek #BrnoJanacek2024 a thrill tonight seeing the 100th anniversary performance of #TheCunningLittleVixen in the Czech Republic. Touching, beautiful singing, playing & staging. Bravo! Leos Janacek's score is a 100 year old miracle. Befittingly the Vixen cut the birthday cake

[Peter McHugh @NorthBank98]

#JohnGrant such superb music making last night at Hackney Church, London.

Something my Dad sadly never got to see - a Galway win against Dublin in Championship football. Only 90 years - 1934- since the last One. #UpGalway #TheWestIsAwake

@st_vincent #allbornscreamingtour #stvincent at @RoyalAlbertHall what a scorching performance - from blistering to tender and all points between. Bravo.... Loved the nod to #Prince @prnlegacy - think he would have loved the music making tonight...

[Staring At Sound @PaulNut]

Today would have been the 100th birthday of the greatest comedian who ever lived. I will be celebrating with a bowl of Harpers, some Grimsby Pilchards and the newly discovered Visit to Swansea. #TonyHancock

[Peter McHugh @NorthBank98]

It most certainly is - lost since May 1955- Hancock's Half Hour - A Visit to Swansea....

Happy 100th birthday Mr Hancock!

[Robert J.E. Simpson @avalard]

Tony Hancock at 100!

Just 44 years old when he died in 1968, his comedic legacy still brings joy decades on.

BBC Radio 4 Extra have a rediscovered episode of Hancock's Half Hour on tonight - I've heard it, and it's a lovely find!

Today we celebrate Hancock's centenary. Born #OTD 12 May 1924, Hancock rose through the ranks of stage and radio to become Britain's top comedian, famous for Hancock's Half on radio from 1954 and later on TV. He left a wonderful legacy of laughter for us to enjoy #Hancock100
