A fascinating podcast interview with David Temple on Choral Chihuahua. Lovely to hear a chunk of Codebreaker on it too. Do check it out. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/cho…

Out today!! I am so proud of this amazing group of girls for all their work on this EP - not just in performing the music, but also writing two of the pieces we recorded. It was such an honour to work with the legendary @johnmrutter as our producer - 2 days of recording we will never forget ❤️ You can listen to the whole EP here ❤️ annalapwood.lnk.to/TheWaitingSky

A simply enormous thank you to @annalapwood and @pembrokechoir for their stunning recording of my 'Peaceful Was the Night' on their new EP ‘The Waiting Sky’. Do have a listen - it's absolutely beautiful. sonyclassical.com/releases/relea…

All right. Let's go. open.spotify.com/album/2KC055Ge…

when you never log-in to twitter any more, but then you do on a whim and you realise the @TheSixteen have performed your music without you being aware of it and now you are desperate to see if anyone has a time machine you can borrow so you can hear it

@hangonrose @DavidJWhetstone @newcastlechoral @hertschorus @domsedgwick @RuthJenkins1 @Sage_Gateshead @culturemag Thank you, Rob! It is really fantastic to have your support

@JamesKMcCarthy @DavidJWhetstone @newcastlechoral @hertschorus @domsedgwick @RuthJenkins1 @Sage_Gateshead @culturemag Codebreaker deserves the widest possible audience. It is a story of our time now, as well of a time recently passed. Wishing you the best for the future of this stunning work

Moving, meticulous, magnificent. Well done @newcastlechoral @hertschorus @JamesKMcCarthy @domsedgwick @RuthJenkins1 and all involved in this brilliant concert @Sage_Gateshead. Definitely worth waiting for! @culturemag bit.ly/3kGvBXp

@IanMacGilp @hertschorus @newcastlechoral @RuthJenkins1 @DTConductor Ah, that's so wonderful to hear! Thank you, Ian, it was a great performance. My grandfather was on the minesweepers in the war.

@JamesKMcCarthy @hertschorus @newcastlechoral @RuthJenkins1 @DTConductor James it was a real pleasure for this history nerd to get to sing such a beautiful piece of music at Sage yesterday. After seven years with NCS it’s one of my favourite things I’ve sung. My grandfather was on the Atlantic convoy routes in the RN, so ‘At Sea’ was beyond moving.

My truly heartfelt thanks to everyone for such a SENSATIONAL performance of Codebreaker at The Sage in Gateshead yesterday. I'm a very lucky composer indeed. Thank you to @hertschorus, @newcastlechoral, @RuthJenkins1, Mark Anyan, and my brother-in-arms @DTConductor

Having rehearsed @JamesKMcCarthy's amazing ‘Codebreaker’ for two years now, we’re easily blown away by the beauty of the music in this piece, its melodies and dynamics. Perhaps even a little blasé? It’s a gorgeous piece of music after all.

Only two weeks to go till we join forces with the distinguished Hertfordshire Chorus to share glorious live music with an audience. Such things seemed unreachable not so long ago! We'll be performing Vaughan Williams' beautiful 'A Sea Symphony' and James McCarthy's 'Codebreaker'

Just four weeks left before the Northern premiere of @JamesKMcCarthy's 'Codebreaker'! We can't wait to meet up with @hertschorus for final rehearsals and performance at @Sage_Gateshead on 1 May - some tickets still available, but selling fast! #Newcastle ticketing.sagegateshead.com/59129/
