On the X/Twitter exit ramp, some thoughts here about the last two years, following a certain phone call. brittensinfonia.com/stories/on-a-r…

Mancunian fanboy moment: thanks to the backstage ⁦@DButcherHalle⁩ pass at ⁦@BridgewaterHall⁩, two Prog anoraks got to meet one of their non-classical heroes. Thanks @HackettOfficial for keeping the Genesis flame alive so brilliantly 50+ years on.

Such good news, and well deserved. Lovely to be reminded just now on @BBCInTune how fresh and invigorating Pound of Cure is. Glad we had the mics up in Milton Court last October.

Our new season: cross-genre collaborations, world premieres and Cathedrals of the East.

We move through genres from bluegrass, jazz and electronics to folk and classical. Programmes rethink the concert experience, with immersive surround-sound concerts in the east’s Cathedrals.
