And bravo to the @DeltaSax for such a fine recording!

@orichalcumbrass I've never seen a farmer on a bike.

@CliveWhitburn I haven't seen anything yet, but I'm sure it will follow. Things seem to be picking up very quickly over there.

@DavidComposer Will do. So you know if there are any starter packs /lists there for composers David?

To be very honest with you I haven't been so happy here since the little blue bird flew away. I think it's probably time for me to migrate too but I do want to keep in touch, so please feel free to join me at David-Lancaster.bsky.social where a new community is growing.

@fantasticdrfox See you there. David-Lancaster.bsky.social

OK, I am taking my social media activities off to the BlauHimmel platform.

@paulodafonseca @HuwMorgan1 @OrganSlow Huw - do join us on Bluesky: I'm David-Lancaster.bsky.social and I suspect you'll find a more sympathetic community there.

Right, I'm out of here. So sorry to leave behind some fine people, but I can't countenance the Musk Trump thing. If you'd like to follow news on my music or see some second rate photos, please look me up on Instagram, handle: mainlysloworganmusic I'll keep @organslow for now...

The Ivor Novello Award for Innovation, in association with @WeAreTheMU, goes to @Gavin_Bryars 🏆 Bryars, a former philosophy student turned jazz bassist, helped pioneer British free improvisation and approaches composition as a vast creative field.

If you're in Washington DC this weekend you have an opportunity to hear 'Canzone Sospesa' performed by cellist Syneva Colle with Alfonso Hernandez, for the Art Music Society chamber concerts. It will be fabulous and I can't wait to hear the recording! artmusicsociety.org/chamber-music-…...

@eggsbened I SO wish I had kept all my 1970s ties. Sadly I gave them all away in the 90s, in a wild outburst of good taste.

TBT: My schoolchum Michael just sent me this. Hmmmm. The 70s have a LOT to answer for. I have absolutely no idea why I am wearing that fetching pink, purple, navy and white tie, a present from my parents who bought it in Macy’s. You’ll be relieved to learn that I still have it.

My publisher, @UYMP, is recruiting a new part-time post to help develop website and aspects of digital promotion. It's a great opportunity for anyone interested in new music and publishing. Please share this with any friends you think might be interested. uymp.co.uk/news/2024-09-1…

Had a great day yesterday at the "More Sounds, More Personalities" conference organised by @GoldsmithsUoL and @UniOfSurrey. And lovely to catch up with @DavidComposer!
