We see opera as part of an open, confident and cultured society. From baroque to classical, from grand opera to contemporary composers, the arts challenge us.

Please don't leave, friends! It's slow and difficult starting afresh, people are scattering across different platforms, and none of those yet function as well. There's still lots of good stuff here. Here's an idea: why not try to find five new, interesting people to follow today?

She is astounding in Elgar, Purcell, Britten and Berlioz. But it is her Mahler which touches me most of all: the humanity, the warmth, the incisive depths into the meaning of the texts and music.
Happiest of birthdays to Janet Baker. 🙏

It is no secret that the arts have been going through a tough time in recent years.
But a major new report we're publishing today with the @uniofwarwick’s @CCMPSWarwickUni shows that things are even worse than we thought.

If a state school with these amazing ex pupils cannot see the value of music education, what hope is there? Deeply saddening.

Backstage at a concert in 2015 at my children’s school -Trinity in Nottingham. Now plans to drastically cut music and creative arts from this wonderful state school. Protest strike on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Where will the future of music come from?
