Looking forward to this ! Music we'd like to hear. London Friday 31st October.

Playing the piano with the new music group George W Welch (reformed after a 30 year hiatus ! 😁) in a concert of music by the composer John White. Witty, genial and very enjoyable music. Hope to see some of you there !

Looking forward to reading these 2 intelligent commentators on the current #AI situation. Just an observation about the design though...somewhat TACKY 😂 When sounding alarms about AI probably best not to choose a cover that looks like a bad AI generation ! @garymarcus.bsky.social @parmy.bsky.social

Now I know Friday evening is not the best time to ask you lovely lot to listen to a 27 minute orchestral piece 😁 You'll likely be heading to the pub for a well earned pint, as am I, but can I ask that you find some quiet time to give this a listen? Ta🍻

A set of lateral #variations on the 3rd movement from #Beethoven #7thSymphony. You can listen here for free, please support if able to, thanks ! :

RIP Brian Wilson a great composer and arranger... Will never forget hearing as a child the opening of Sloop John B, and the songs Good Vibrations and God Only Knows... could almost taste the music it was so colourful. Thank you...A life well lived 💛 #BrianWilson

Here is a home studio version of my piece 'The Present' for #BassClarinet #Marimba #StringQuartet. It was given 3 performances in #Romania in last year. Would be good to get funding to record it with the original musicians ! I hope you like it #newmusic #musicscore

Here's a new #jazz flavoured tune. It was originally intended to be just a practice routine but the sequence was lovely and after the tune arrived - then the Khachaturian / Rachmaninoff inspired ending - I thought I'd better record it ! #Improvisation

I am vastly amused that the hubris of the 'Nerd Reich' tech bros in the good ol' USA has been rapidly lanced by the Chinese... that's a good thing. Turning into a Stan and Ollie-garchy 😂 #DeepSeek #Copyright #LisaNandy
