Our tour with Tony Kofi celebrating the life & music of Thelonious Monk is coming to an end. Last tour date next Friday, 11 Nov Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama in Cardiff - grab your tickets directly with them! Thank you to our friends Wiltshire Music Centre for this lovely clip 🔥

Really fabtastic rhythm section masterclass from Zoe Rahman NYJO this morning — super cool/groovy tunes and nice to be playing with a bunch of new(-to-me) people!!🎶😁

Wowza. Cannot wait to hear the response.

Let’s be honest: Brexit isn’t working. British exporters are struggling, our living standards are falling and the UK is now the only G7 country with a smaller economy than before the pandemic. Unless we face up to the harm Brexit is causing we can't start to address it.

Really great to hear all the talented The Purcell School for Young Musicians jazz musicians performing tonight. Simon Allen is doing great work with them - an inspirational and energetic head of department!

Tonight we have the Joint Schools concert - DCGSMusic and DCHS Music combined! Looking forward to taking part in the Fauré Requiem later. My copy has good ancestry - used by Mark Armstrong, now musical director of NYJO!

When #NYJO do a function we like to go large! Great fun playing for #Salesforce this morning! @ ExCeL London instagram.com/p/Cll8o5nKYa1/…

Great to workshop an arrangement by Florence Anna Maunders of a Chick Corea piece with NYJO and Mark Armstrong ahead of their residency at Ronnie Scott’s later this month #jazz

It was a pleasure to hear some great playing from the students yesterday, including Finn here on the trumpet!

Really pleased to read this!

Happiness is doing some programming for BBC Singers and looking towards Christmas 2023 and beyond. Talking of 🎄- strong soundtrack for the day from BBC Singers when we collaborated with Clare Teal Ben Palmer 🇪🇺 NYJO Mark Armstrong for some Quincy Jones

Lovely day in my FRCM robes yesterday at the RCM graduation ceremony! Congratulations to everyone there, especially making it through COVID lockdowns with such positive attitudes. #growthmindset

Fantastic night out Barbican Centre listening to Artemis and Kandace Springs tonight!
