Happy Birthday William Mathias, who would have been 88 today. Here he is on one of his many US trips. #bod1934

Music isn’t a 2nd class subject, music teachers aren’t 2nd class teachers, and music isn’t just a nice little extra. Music is core, music is fundamental to a holistic and meaningful education, and music teachers make such a positive and lifelong impact on the lives of so many.

#PeterMaxwellDavies (for whom #Ulysses was a decisive creative influence) always maintained that it was “better in Italian”! Max spoke German, Italian and French fluently cc @Terribleman @THEMAXTRUST @SylviaJunge3 @Dr_NJones @remcgregor @JudithSerota @MarkSimpson_88 @Lacritica

#PeterMaxwellDavies’ Farewell to Stromness as part of the service for The Queen at St Paul’s ❤️
