Absolutely love the simple, but brilliant concept of #LongPlayers by Tom Gatti: the key albums in the lives of a fabulous selection of authors. Some choice you might guess, others provide a real ‘Whaaat? Wow!’ moment! Have giant crush on #david_mitchell now

Stravinsky b otd 1882! He dragged music, kicking and screaming, into a new era, with the most famously scandalous premiere (the Rite) in history. Thereafter, the twists and turns of his artistic development are endlessly fascinating - and quite unlike those of any other composer.

Weber's Der Freischutz premiered otd 200 years ago! Such a magical work - a strong influence on Schumann, Wagner, etc. I love the story of Beethoven meeting Weber. 'You're the very devil of a fellow,' he said, chuckling, embracing Weber and plying him with copious amounts of wine

Wisdom from philosopher Blaise Pascal, b otd 1623: "Kind words do not cost much. Yet they accomplish much." "Small minds are concerned with the extraordinary, great minds with the ordinary." "If all men knew what others say of them, there would not be four friends in the world."

Mieczyslaw Horszowski b otd 1892! I remember the first notes he played at Wigmore Hall (Bach/Liszt) - they took us back a century. Inexplicable how pianists' sounds differ so utterly; as Olli Mustonen says, it's a question of creating magic. And that Horszowski certainly did...

Happy Birthday Hampstead Heath. This tranquil piece of countryside in the vast sprawl of London was granted protected status 150 years ago this week.
