On a much belated note - really thrilled to have had my first work for orchestra recorded last week by the wonderful students of the @RoyalAcadMusic Symphony orchestra, with the inimitable @AaronHNahum at the helm! Huge thanks to @_morgan_hayes for all the advice too!

[Elliot Teo @elliot_teo]

Huge shoutout to @AerLingus for a terrific flight from London to Dublin! Top notch service, punctuality, and comfort throughout! Looking forward to the return flight back 🙏🏼

[Elliot Teo @elliot_teo]

@StephenLimbaugh @SingaporeSymph @ngtianhui Glad I have your attention.

[Elliot Teo @elliot_teo]

It’s not everyday you get to write for your heroes! Huge thanks to the @SingaporeSymph for commissioning and performing my orchestral arrangement of the National Day song of 2021, [The Road Ahead], last weekend! Big shoutout to maestro @ngtianhui for captaining the helm as well!

I swear I’ll have an aneurism if I see anymore hearsay like this on social media

[Stephen Limbaugh @StephenLimbaugh]

The woman here has just been named the new conductor for the Iceland Symphony.

Here she is performing "music" by Ligeti...

...this nonsense goes on for 11mins 🥴

How does it feel to be so embarrassingly wrong on all levels

🚨🚨🚨Composer friends - please do consider applying! I had one of the best experiences writing for these musicians through this wonderful opportunity

[Britten Sinfonia @BrittenSinfonia]

Just 3 days left to apply for Opus 1! 🚀Apply now to compose for a group of Britten Sinfonia musicians this summer.
Opus 1 is designed for “first rung on the ladder” composers aged 18+, who have not taken part in a similar scheme before.

I’m thoroughly impressed by the efficacy and comfort of my flight with @vueling today! Won’t think twice about booking with them the next time I’m looking for a flight into Europe!

[Elliot Teo @elliot_teo]

It’s a huge delight to discover so many works I never knew about - and so scintillatingly played too! Many thanks to @hyperionrecords for availing their catalogue for all to enjoy! https://t.co/fA8GIgnyM1

Fury.
@E_N_O could be described as our most important National Arts company: Mother ship to artists in ALL disciplines..central to arts international outreach & our creative identity. Wilful stupidity @ace_national @ace__london @10DowningStreet @GOVUK knows no limits...

Whatever your historically based political sympathies, if you have even a shred of human decency you surely cannot morally justify Saturday's barbaric attacks on innocent civilians. “A plague o’ both your houses” is, for once, inappropriate.

[Elliot Teo @elliot_teo]

@houghhough @UMG @hyperionrecords My partner is performing the piano part of Bowen’s Horn sonata at @RoyalAcadMusic tomorrow - the huge chords in there sound as if they were cut from the same fabric as the opening of Rach 2!

I’ve long been accused of Islamophobia. This episode explains what I’m really phobic about.

My brain:
Feb-16th July: “help me there are too many notes I need a holiday!”
16th July 11:00pm: “🥳 I’m on holiday!”
16th July 11:01pm: “AAARGH nobody likes me I’m unemployed I’ll never work again!”
😂🤯😂

@JozefGaszka Shostakovich’s Festive Overture comes to mind if you’re looking for some effervescence!

[Raymond Yiu @raymondyiu]

24 years between 1st hearing my music played (in Chelmsford) and being a co-director for Opus schemes, @BrittenSinfonia has shown me its core value of nurturing composers. Please help them continue by sharing & donating to its #PlayOn campaign. https://t.co/8gDQW6P3kQ
