Re-reading a job application for BBC Singers that I applied for back in 2021… I’m sure they meant the words then but they ring hollow now. Such a regressive step to remove this beacon of musical professionalism and inspiration from our culture careerssearch.bbc.co.uk/jobs/job/Tenor…

We call on Arts Council England and Darren Henley CBE to develop an opera strategy, in conversations with audiences and our colleagues across the industry - Royal Opera House, Glyndebourne, Opera North, English National Opera & @WNOtweet
