We were wowed by @errollynwallen.bsky.social's work, The Elements, at the First Night of the #BBCProms - especially after @benenglandbem.bsky.social's recent, fascinating lecture series taught us all about The Elements of Music. It's still available - don't miss it! choirlibrary.com/memberships-...

BBC Proms The world's greatest classical music festival - stunning concerts and collaborations.

First Night of the Proms: summer is properly here at last, and there’s an @errollynwallen.bsky.social world premiere to boot. Hoping for as much drama but less stress than last night’s football… 🎢

Album reviews: Tide Lines | Willie Nelson | MΓ iri Morrison & Alasdair Roberts Tide Lines celebrate their adopted city of Glasgow without really capturing its essence, while Willie Nelson remains prolific and relevant, writes Fiona Shepherd

Praise from our cultured cousins North of the Border:

"In an album of works written over two decades, the BBC Concert Orchestra under conductor John Andrews illustrate the instinctive eclecticism that gives Wallen’s music its instant accessibility and charm." @errollynwallen.bsky.social
