Throughout the year, @matilda_brown and @jamesmacm have been working with the Supported Learning Centre of Robert Burns Academy, who have created their own programme of music 🎵 The music will be performed at The Way We Are at this year’s Tryst! 🎟 thecumnocktryst.com/the-way-we-are

@thenitinsawhney @pinkfloyd Oh amazing Nitin Sawhney! 🎉🎵Thank you for this ! ( I’m also a Pink Floyd fan and from a young age. They’ve not only influenced my music but my life ! I turned from conforming in school when I found Dark Side of the Moon and moved to the dark side haha! - my teenage awakening😊

I joined @pinkfloyd to raise money for charity last year. I’m aware some Floyd fans struggled with this release so here is my penny’s worth… I played keyboards on Hey Hey Rise Up and felt honoured to do so, as a Pink Floyd fan virtually all my life. When David Gilmour called me he asked how I would feel to join Pink Floyd and I said “you’re such an unsuccessful band, I don’t know…” In all seriousness, when he explained he wanted to raise money for a nation under attack, especially since Putin was literally threatening to use nuclear weapons at the time, I felt greatly honoured. I obviously did not believe I was literally joining Pink Floyd in playing keyboards on a charity single… I did, however, believe in what they were doing and it was a genuinely incredible and humbling experience for me to be in the same room and record on the same track as these legends. David calls it a Floyd track so I guess it is as he retains the rights as far as I’m aware. Remember, a band name is just a name. Don’t get too hung up on it. These are good people and incredible musicians doing something positive on a track that went to number one in 29 different countries and raised a fortune in sales… We all did it for no money. I was privileged to be part of it and make no apologies for pedants who worry it interfered with their idea of what PF is. It’s Gilmour, Mason and Pratt, for God’s sake. They’re brilliant and gave so much incredible music to all of us. #PinkFloyd

Today, award-winning composer @matilda_brown has been leading sessions with pupils from @EACrobertburns's Supported Learning Centre as part of The Way We Are - a project for which pupils will write and create music to be performed at a concert at The Cumnock Tryst 2023!

@thenitinsawhney I read these comments and I can’t believe ( well I guess I can!🤪) people would talk to anyone like this, let alone someone that writes music from the base of their heart and that only brings peace and amazing music to thousands. It baffles me. I’m glad you speak out. 🙏🏽🙏🏼

Useful glossary for trolls… Woke - not asleep. Socialist - caring about society. Leftie - compassionate and anti-fascist. Climate change activist - concerned about human extinction and reversing harm to our planet. Remainer - Tried to save the U.K. from xenophobic self harm.

@thenitinsawhney @AshwinFlute This just flows through the blood. Thank you for the lovely slice of music

I have worked with @AshwinFlute for around 20 years now and he never fails to fill my soul with inspiration and beauty with every note… A true master… and also an incredible vocalist. Here he is playing on a track I recorded in Mumbai recently. #music #musicallife #india #mumbai

@thenitinsawhney I had been thinking about this too!The belief that following my creativity, writing music. from an early age, meant I was troubled -An artist!!This myth has halted me. Now I realise I was instinctively following something far more beautiful. I write more music now 🌸

I used to believe conflict, external and internal, was a fuel for creativity. I feel that’s the myth many of us in the music industry were sold… That self sabotage and hedonistic self loathing were every artist’s curse… and blessing. It’s taken me a lifetime to learn otherwise.

This was an absolute joy to create with @T_Health_Arts_T Wonderful participants - musicians 😊 working with lovely musicians from @RSNO Thank you to all who helped bring this to fruition- a joyous and beautiful performance #composingmusic #makingmusictogether #musicandwellbeing
