Some more music: youtu.be/JKqQiTEoeM4. This one's part of a set of three where the titles are all anagrams of each other. The title Being refers to the fact that it's basically just the same theme the whole way through in different forms.

'Tis the season for calls for scores, so 'tis the season for some #RealTalk about the impact your well-intended call is having on composers.

Ensembles: thank you for being interested in new music, and in discovering composers you aren't familiar with yet.

I'm new here! Interested mainly in following people involved in climate change or contemporary classical music (especially opera). Would love some recommendations of who to follow here.
