Chris Nightingale

Here’s a Christmasy thing for people who like Christmasy things chrisnightingale.bandcamp.com/album/a-christ…

@BBCNewsnight over control right now. Please stop!! Not fun to watch. It’s frantic!

@WeTransfer Why does @WeTransfer need a “perpetual, transferable license” to my files? You’re a file transfer service, a digital courier. Perpetual & transferable rights? Creative industries should find alternatives. No way I’m sending music cues, scores, video on your platform

@berkeley_sq Hi! 👋 We recognize our updated terms may have caused confusion; here’s what’s important: - Your content is always your content - We don’t use machine learning to process content shared via WeTransfer Full statement: bit.ly/4nSQmyp Contact us: bit.ly/44KKik9

This is shocking! @WeTransfer … please explain?! So I send music I’ve written via you and you can exploit it? Like the post office opening and

… reading, and selling our letters (meant to add)

@thewittjones @ClassicFM @RSCMMusicDirect @VivumMusic Gosh, that’s stunning

Here's a scrolling score for @ClassicFM favourite Christmas Lullaby, publ. @RSCMMusicDirect - beautiful sop solo from Sumei Bao-Smith and gorgeous Vivum Singers Katy Hill Simon Wall Gavin Cranmer-Moralee et al... out on @VivumMusic this Autumn.

Err, did I hear @BBCWalesNews reporting that there was a culture of “going to the pub after a service” and that was deemed unacceptable and partly led to the archbishop resigning? lol!! We’d have been excommunicated back at the Servites

@PeterBradshaw1 Agggh sadly not! Brilliant but Aggh…

Could this be the start of Emma’s fightback?

@GraceLSDavidson Just stunning

Here’s a calming Tuesday morning choral arrangement of Fauré’s Pie Jesu by Barnaby Smith, sung by Meridian Choir & conducted by Irene Messoloras. 🔗 lnk.to/SerenityMeridi…

Nick, brilliant. You properly rattled Dave Rubin. The pesky BBC. Thank GOD for the BBC! And @BBCNewsnight

@BBCNewsnight I think I might be the only person to think that Paddy isn’t as amusing as Paddy thinks he is. Exhausting. Would love to hear what the guests think. Grrr. #Newsnight

The question basically being asked today worldwide is "what is art?" - and that's amazing. IMHO though, art is NOT unscrupulously feeding AI companies at the original artists' expense, without their permission.

@thewittjones Listen to this! The simplicity and genius of those fifths… I think this is amazing

@berkeley_sq Love it! I'll definitely bring our sprogs to the stage show in due course! Organ Scholars rule 🤣

@berkeley_sq Chris your arrangements and orchestrations for Matilda are just astonishingly good - my kids are obsessed with the songs at the moment and they are on a lot in our house! Respect 🙏

@thewittjones Nice, glad it’s the movie. Want to incorporate some of that into the stage show now… slight difference in forces tho obvs! But gonna give it a go. And yes, an organ scholar but god help me if I tried to play now, it wouldn’t end well! Aggh 💩

@berkeley_sq We love it! They're listening to the film version on repeat - but I'm a longtime fan of the stage version too! All v best! (Ps I think I read you are also an erstwhile oxbridge organ scholar!)

That repetition of fifths for the first half … genuinely outstanding. Amazing weave of harmonies. So so clever. Mesmerising

@MarinaPurkiss @campbellclaret Free speech! There’s no accounting for this level of stupid and hypocrisy @elonmusk Almost more worrying are the Republican cowards - they’re all afraid of him. At least Trump is consistently dumb The Rep guys are just gutless cos they can’t possibly be that moronic, can they?

This is the literal penalisation of free speech…

@gavinesler @campbellclaret Oh my gosh, what’s happening in the world or was it always thus? So fed up that we all play by the rules… this just erodes trust in everything. It’s a depressing race to the bottom. Where are the political voices in resistance?

I love coincidences

@BBCNewsnight I love #newsnight and I like Nick Watt but this really isn’t good enough. He really is not capable of standing up to the crazy MAGA lady Carla Sands. Great journo but presenting??? Nope. Infuriating

@campbellclaret Oh my god. Casinos, nightlife. Hope it’s a game but fear it’s a nuke to established diplomatic conventions. What does @Nigel_Farage think China and Russia will take from this?!

All a game
