Happy Birthday chaps! I'm sorry not to be able to celebrate with you tonight. I hope you have a great evening!
Looking forward to @londiniumchoir.bsky.social's 20th birthday party tonight! A @nicomuhly.com world premiere, plus Elliott Carter, @gabrielcomposer.bsky.social, Will Harmer, Walton, Leighton, Joubert, Ravel, Byrd, Monteverdi, Clarke, Stanford, Ockeghem and a little trifle by Schoenberg...
New album coming soon (23 April to be precise): all the pieces I have written for Donald Nally and The Crossing. The singing by this very great choir is astonishing!

"...with Gabriel Jackson (born 1962) and his To Morning, which set William Blake (O holy virgin!), and an entreaty for Her to "Unlock heaven's golden gate". The poem is magnificent; Jackson's setting equally so." says @classicalexplorer.bsky.social www.classicalexplorer.com/arise-m-y-lo...

Stabat Mater wasn't Poulenc's first choral/orchestral piece. That was SΓ©cheresses (in 1937). It's a better piece than many (including Poulenc himself) think it is
