We’re still buzzing from yesterday! Here’s William Ruff’s review:

[Nicholas Daniel OBE 🇺🇦🏳️‍⚧️ @ndanielmusic]

Ok @British_Airways “I’m mad as hell and I’m just not going to take it any more”. When your own website explicitly says instruments are fine why do you stress out my friends and say they can’t board because hard cases? Ms J Shave and Ms C Finnimore deserve an apology.

[Nicholas Daniel OBE 🇺🇦🏳️‍⚧️ @ndanielmusic]

So @British_Airways simply doesn’t care that nearly 10,000
people have seen one tweet from me saying that they treated musicians like filth today and made lives hugely more stressful. Utterly reprehensible and appalling. No response privately, publicly, on Twitter or Facebook. ☠️

‘Just about the most exhilarating way you could spend a wet Sunday afternoon in Nottingham.’ 4**** from William Ruff. https://t.co/U8bbD9jII8

Here’s the review of Sunday’s concert. Thank you to all those who came to listen. https://t.co/66yOCPLDf6

[Nottingham Philharmonic Orchestra @nphilharmonic]

A great concert by the three orchestras of @nottinghamyo at @RoyalNottingham last night, with many of our players involved in their roles as tutors. Brilliant to see so many local young people enjoying quality music-making. Stravinsky’s Firebird is not for the faint-hearted!
