@RachelStaunton
Hallo Rachel. I'm interested in making contact about some singing things. Can you follow so I can direct message. Thank you!

@bernardlhughes https://t.co/GRLMwIM6DQ Also an honourable mention for Sondheim’s ‘I like the island Manhattan, smoke on your pipe and put that in’ excellent…!

@bernardlhughes What do you get when you kiss a guy?
You get enough germs to catch pneumonia
After you do, he'll never phone ya…

That’s gotta be up there somewhere.

@fizzlekelly You probably already know ‘O Magnum Mysterium’ by Lauridsen too. It toes the line of ‘is this a bit of an Eric Whitacre knockoff but perhaps marginally less cheesy’ but I think comes down just the right side of that line…

[Sam Coates @samcoates]

@fizzlekelly The final cadence from Howell’s ‘Spotless Rose’. Sublime.

So Christmassy!

@Komaniecki_R ListeningIn is also a great one for video essays (despite some very clickbaity titles). https://t.co/06LZOj2MTS

It’s the end of term! Have you seen the amazing young musicians in the @graveneymusic online end of term concert yet? I had lots of fun doing this, and I’ve been told I don’t shout about these things loud enough! So, here:

The second online concert of the week and this one’s a cracker - over 900 performers! I’m glad I was just on the arrangement and not the mix this time though!

@stgeorgeprimary @magic_breakfast You are superstars!

@DaveHamilton @EricBradley speaks the truth on Mainstage and you can import your Logic channel strips to get you going. Pretty intuitive BUT there is a learning curve creating visual objects and linking them to mixer/plugin parameters. It's a nice geek challenge for when you have time though!

[Sam Coates @samcoates]

@DaveHamilton 1. Route everything that’s routed to Stereo to a Bus. Use the same bus as the input to a stereo audio channel (muted)
2. Just hit record on everything and all in touch mode. This will record any automation on the fly fly. At the end, if you liked it, bounce, if not, remix!

@LA_Clancy @RachFinnegan @thepostalmuseum @RichardTrainor Amazing find!

[Sam Coates @samcoates]

@stgeorgeprimary Thank you! It’s such an interesting language. I was thinking of trying to learn it whilst we have some more time, but thought that I should probably try and work on my French that’s halfway there first! I spy lots of wonderful work from St G’s as usual 😊

@AvidSibelius @AvidSupport I applied for 3 month off-site education licenses two weeks ago and have emailed twice since but have heard nothing! We have students that are urgently needing to complete work. Please contact me as a matter of urgency.
