Such a relief to see this news today about the BBC Singers. Let's keep fighting, as well as hoping that this continues to move in a positive direction for the sake of choral, orchestral and all classical music! https://t.co/IY6aNmanwE

Choral singing, leadership & composition should be viable, visible and valued. @BBCSingers are elite vocal athletes; agile, flexible, at the top of their game, & essential to maintaining our choral industry & global reputation.
So encouraging to work with the brilliant singers of @HarlequinChCh with some very lovely and capable conductors, on some challenging repertoire. “We are alchemists of sound”! So grateful to be able to host this masterclass after nearly 3 years. Choral music is viable and valued!
Devastating news. Where surveys tell us that children are asking for more opportunities and exposure to Classical Music, this is demonstrating how increasingly difficult it is to make a living in this field and the ever shrinking lack of support there is. https://t.co/LY62cMAzie
Ich thynke but litel of a Mondaye bleake
Tuesdaye grey and Wednesdaye eke
Thursdaye Ich care nat for thee
Yet Fridaye Ich do love
Mondaye thou mayst fall awaye
Tuesdaye, Wednesdaye, myne herte breake
No mirthe ys ther upon Thursdaye
Yet Fridaye Ich do love
Teachers! This one is for you, for always finding the strength to give young people hope, even in the most difficult circumstances. Thank you.

The loss of critical, nuanced, high quality teacher training that is grounded in research would be devastating. This will affect SCITT as well as PGCE courses should the DfE proceed with this #ITTMarketReview. Let's hope they listen to the responses from leading providers! 🤞
1/ The Government #ITTMarketReview will leave @Cambridge_Uni with little choice but to pull out of teacher training. Our full response to the Govt consultation is online here: https://t.co/aTPhHePHkl

It's practically impossible to enter a bookshop and walk out without a book, especially when you're with @scottish_katy ! Looking forward to this read by @officialnhaynes 🤓
@jpmanwaring Well yes, generally not a fan. But particularly when they've managed to find the small gap of my window in, but can't find the way out again!
