Can't quite believe we've lost David Price OBE, musician, music educator, and my friend. An interview I did with him during a lull between lockdowns. https://t.co/STwAx5jcNx

So lovely to see @PeterSpafford, writer, and Olwen May, director, in #Leeds today to discuss the audio version of #TheSandHouse play, to be recorded later in 2024. If you missed the stage play @castindoncaster (or even if you saw it!), you won't want to miss this. Updates soon!

Just heard George Butterworth's setting of Loveliest of Trees on Radio 3. Here's the Schwa version which is a bit more Mungo Jerry than George. https://t.co/KJcIrZy7i5
