I had the delight of getting a sneak preview of this album. It's really beautiful, perfect for a slow Sunday morning with a hot cup of coffee. (Not that I remember the last time I had a slow Sunday in this delightfully chaotic life.) Totally recommend checking it out!

This!! Especially the point about how student loans affect women worse than men. Please read! I was the generation whose fees were paid and I even got a small (and decreasing) grant each year. Education should be free!!!
Yesterday I payed off my student loan, whilst I’m pleased, it’s worth highlighting what a ridiculous and frankly shameful situation student loans have become. A🧵 below on how student loans have become a money making racket, its long term problems and alternatives:

I spoke to my friend and wonderful composer Cassandra Miller, it was a pleasure to explore the sheer expansiveness of her music https://t.co/fLYZ8YOpZO

Shamelessly using #InternationalWomensDay as an excuse to write about my favourite composers! Today: a round up of some major new works coming up this year, from Hannah Kendall, Clara Iannotta, Lisa Streich and others... @bachtrack @tectonicsglas
