Woohoo! Very grateful to be awarded funding from ACE, Creative Scotland, the Hope Scott Trust and the Francis Routh Trust for my newest project, Inventions: The harpsichord across time and borders. Check out the webpage: https://t.co/WfQKs3ut6T

@EXAUDIensemble @Hazrati_Emily98 It was a hugely enjoyable concert!

@lorelixenberg @GreavesIan Lore, I recently used CD Direct. They are fast, efficient, good value, and it’s a small company so you talk directly to the manager.

@SamEvansLondon I always do this with my choirs - suggest a quality not a quantity! It particularly helps those who have les vocal control.

My absolute favourite discovery this week is that Boulez inspired the song ‘You can call me Al’ by repeatedly getting Paul Simon and his wife’s name wrong at a party.

@ippolitomusic @oliviafclarke Great piece, Michael!

[JOatesMusic @MusicOates]

@conductorben @oliviafclarke @CherylHoad These are great!

[JOatesMusic @MusicOates]

@coma_glasgow That’s brilliant! That old conservative Boulez! 😅

Is anybody able to send me a pdf of Music and Letters vol. 84 no.2 (may 2003), pp 242-257 (article about the english musical renaissance) please? I don’t have access to JSTOR.

[JOatesMusic @MusicOates]

@sarahdaceyuk I’ll be there - I love her songs so am hoping for a lot of colour and character… toi toi toi !

[JOatesMusic @MusicOates]

I’ve just come across a promotional CD from Boosey and Hawkes, 2017: Contemporary Choral series. 73 tracks, with 1 (one) by a woman! To be fair, there were only 29 composers represented….

@Thalie_Knights @teteateteopera @alicebeckwith @cockpittheatre @claireshov I enjoyed it: a beautifully controlled and expressive performance.

[JOatesMusic @MusicOates]

@lungz00 @Whenworld @MichaelRosenYes Me too - ip dip, dog’s sh**, effing ba****d, silly git. OUT spells out! From Chatham - perhaps a bit of naval influence!

[JOatesMusic @MusicOates]

@MezzoRosie Yes please!

[JOatesMusic @MusicOates]

@MezzoRosie Yes! a pair of songs for voice (and teapot) and cello, written for Sarah Leonard and Robin Michaels some years ago... I'd be happy to send them to you (scores and workshop recordings)...
