Today is the 150th anniversary of Ralph Vaughan Williams! To mark this occasion, OUP Music is donating precious material relating to the man himself to the @britishlibrary. Here Simon Wright and Chris Scobie discuss this collaborative venture. #RVW150 https://t.co/vMPfjPbNDf
Today is the 150th anniversary of Ralph Vaughan Williams birth.
Here he is talking about his contribution to the English Hymnal - a job which he was told would take 2 months and in fact took 2 years!

Come on @BBCSport - just watching Football Focus and fans are being told yet again that #culture is expensive & ballet not very popular. You can buy tix for the #ballet for less than the cost of a Premiere League match!
All of these athletes need each others support!
Make some new discoveries this evening in #Greenwich! - a concert of rarely-heard delights by women choral composers from several centuries. Tickets on door 730pm @StAlfegeChurch
@savegreenwich1 It was bad this weekend as Hyde Vale was closed due to road works at the junction with A2 . This was the case all weekend and traffic was bad everywhere in the area due to 3 - way traffic lights. It wasn't just here.

Tonight is the culmination of nearly 4 years of hard but fascinating work preparing the live score/film of Scott of the Antarctic. The @BBCSO sounding wonderful with Martyn Brabbins at the helm. It’s going to be a very special evening. @BarbicanCentre 1/6

Today is the day!
@the_halle and @BBCPhilharmonic join forces in @BridgewaterHall for the exciting launch concert of their Vaughan Williams symphony cycle in celebration of #RVW150. We are so excited for this series of concerts, and for the coming year of celebrations ⭐🥂🎵
Many contemporary composers struggle to find new listeners. But on Friday, Cecilia McDowall’s new Christmas carol will debut to some 100 million radio listeners worldwide. https://t.co/EcZEvIeItx
So pleased that the beautiful two new carols by Cecilia McDowall and @JamesWhitbourn were finally broadcast on TV today for the Carols from Kings filmed the other week.
It was a privilege to attend, and here's the pic of the two happy composers!
