Dear Simon Pegg, Maths is a hugely creative subject that underpins many creative industries: architecture, animation, special effects, music. To equate mathematicians with a drone army of date entering robots shows why a maths for artists 16-18 course would be a great idea.

I say something to this effect every year but the offer still stands - if someone ever needs help applying for a composer scheme, doesn't know what to write or submit etc, I would be happy to help you out with it. they're tough+ it takes a long time know what they're looking for!

Shameful. ⁦BBC Singers⁩ is one of the leading advocates of choral music in the world and their budget probably equals one sports presenter’s salary. The BBC corporate spin on it is beyond belief. theguardian.com/music/2023/mar…

This is a great letter which lays out the impact of the proposed cuts by the BBC to its world-class ensembles. Sign the petition at change.org/p/stop-the-pla…

BBC Singers "have given both comfort and joy to Radio 3 listeners and Promenaders alike and have tirelessly fulfilled their roles as public servants, doing great outreach work and much to promote diversity in music." telegraph.co.uk/music/classica…

‘Once you’ve got rid of the Singers, you will want to disband the orchestras too, then the Proms and eventually Radio 3 itself, whose classical coherence is already under threat.’ spectator.co.uk/article/speak-… via The Spectator

Hmm...I may get turned back at Heathrow for this, but it had to be said. Proud to join over 700 other composers in this infuriating protest.

NEW LETTER: The chief conductors of *ALL* the European radio choirs are uniting against the planned closure of the BBC Singers! We urge those responsible BBC to reconsider. This world-class choir must be at the centre of any new strategy for choral music. #WeAreTheBBCSingers

I saw that Keir Starmer - in all likelihood the next PM - was sitting right next to the choirs. I hope the experience of how the superb singing held the occasion together, gave it so much of its power and meaning, stays with him.

Dear muso friends — my Festival starts this evening and as of today we’re without a concert manager for two weeks. Any music/arts admin types on here who fancy some extra work? You’ll need a car, it’s a paid opportunity and we can provide accommodation if needed.

What a great step forward for artistic freedom in the UK. How can the culture and art powering society stay fresh and alive if it's restricted to a narrow ideology?Everything should be on the table for artists.

Now all we need is to agree on what is false information, and who gets to decide what may be said. Several governments have passed draconian laws against Misinformation, and they’re not the governments with the best track records on free speech and democracy.

I'm working on a summary tagline for all the writing I do across different subjects, including fiction. Which do you think is better? Retweets much appreciated for wider sample.

Banning teenagers from social media is a bad idea, I argue today in the Washington Post. It's less like banning them from alcohol or tobacco, as some advocates say, and more like banning them from books or movies – there are lots of books I don't want my kids reading before
