Sad news - he played with us @GoldsmithsUoL many times over the years. A lovely man and a great musician.
So sad to hear the passing of Alan Tomlinson, an extraordinary improviser who's playing was always an inspiration, full of virtuosity and humour. He will be greatly missed. https://t.co/rCUCjzsGB4

Awful news. The first instrument I played had just such a stamp. Please share on behalf of @SKMusicService!
HELP NEEDED! Unfortunately a HUGE amount of our instruments were stolen last week. Our instruments are marked with SMS-XXX (like the attached photos) Please keep a lookout on facebook, ebay etc for any of our missing instruments. Please also share this post! Thank you in advance!

The fabulous @ErrollynWallen is in @guardian today with an extract from her new book "Becoming a Composer" . Wonderful to hear that when she was @GoldsmithsUoL she was "every night attending concerts and was at nearly every important premiere"
theguardian.com
In an exclusive extract from her new book the musician recalls the shift from concertgoer to concert-giver β and how it involved chocolate, and explains why opera composers lie, cheat, steal, murder...
