Our next @bfchorus.bsky.social concert: Howell's Hymnus Paradisi, 18 July, Hove. Should be beautiful.

Thank you to everyone who supported BFC tenor Alastair on his fundraising cycle ride for Hymnus Paradisi. 265 miles in under 24 hours, tracing key locations from Howells’ life, Alastair overcame challenges before reaching the RCM. Congrats Alastair, on a remarkable achievement. 🎟️: bit.ly/4fWKFhc

In Oct 1988, BFC toured The Music Makers in the Netherlands with the Brabant Orchestra, performing four concerts across the country. Conductor Norman Del Mar loved ice cream, so the Chorus ordered the biggest one - with sparklers. Tickets: anvilarts.org.uk/events/brigh... #BFCHistory

New research from the RPO suggests that adults in the UK engage with classical and orchestral music this month more than any other time of the year. Additionally, 51% of adults with no prior relationship to classical music say they will give it a try over the Christmas period.

It certainly helps cohesion! But also communication with the audience energetic performance and drama. It was with @bfchorus.bsky.social We only occasionally attempt off book, but when we do it is always stunning.

Music in higher education creates valuable impact on the world; social, cultural & economic value, & value in terms of health & wellbeing & community. My thoughts on how this is unrecognised and undervalued are in this piece in @timeshighered.bsky.social www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/mone...

Money should not be the only KEF metric

England’s Knowledge Exchange Framework unfairly marks down an arts cluster whose impact is not directly reflected in cash, says Michelle Phillips

We're rehearsing this wicked, raucous, outrageously opulent score charting the Fall of Babylon. A curse, lavish orgies, a slaying and a hymn of brazen triumph. What a piece to rehearse for the concert on 9th Feb with the wonderful BPO. Until then, there's a lot of hard work ahead :) #bpo #brightdome
