Some four years into the making, with 630 bars of music written running to 32 1/2 mins, a project has just hit the 80% mark & at last feels within reach of being done. I must return to finishing editing an Elgar vol. —but it feels so close. #JustALittleLonger #NewMusic #Composing

@RichardBratby True, but these seem to crop up only rarely by comparison, and they certainly don't have a dedicated programme, as film music does.

@pgl_fecit Exactly the same as all incidental music, ballet music, theatre scores etc from the renaissance to the present day. Some works in concert, some doesn't. I've never understood why film scores alone get singled out, as if this problem is unique to that specific medium.

Sorry not to be more angry with Radio 3. It seems to be expected of me. But when I turn on the radio I generally go for R4. And the R3 shows I do listen to when circumstances allow - Record Review, Composer of the Week, Essential Classics - all seem...well, fine, tbh. Sorry.

I am immensely grateful to have become one of the latest in the long line of composers to have been supported by @VWFndn over the last 70 years. They have v.kindly awarded me a grant for the release of the debut recording of my music, on @resonusclassics, due out 6th November.

An idea for something came to me at 3.30am. So it wouldn't get lost in sleep, I got up at 4 to write it. With a minute of new music drafted, I could now do with going back to bed. Maybe I'll spend an hour in the garden building a wall to wake me up before returning to the desk...

I have great reservations about social media, but have followed a trend to leap across to BlueSky to see how things fare there. I'm at philiplancaster.bsky.social, should any be interested.

Greetings! I've let Twitter slip & am never sure whether or not to be posting, even if time allows. The muddle of life and a great conflict with how much technology & social media impinges & imposes. But to abandon it breaks a connection with many lovely people... #SocialQuandary

@LichfieldLore Ah, lovely to see and hear this — thank you for posting! I miss those woods greatly, and the trundle round Pipe Green, now that I am in Devon. I managed a dawn wander through the woods earlier in the year, though, on a brief return visit.
