We appeal to those in power at Cardiff University to cherish and protect the School of Music. Matching the pride that Wales famously possesses for its musicians, the School takes such care training its students, and the UK music profession embraces all they have to offer.

Grateful to @zdscomposer.bsky.social for introducing me to some wonderful examples of metamodern contemporary music, including the extremely fresh 'SERENITY 2.0' (2021)—a glitchy, interrupted guided meditation that composer Ben Nobuto imagines as ultimately "reaching towards some kind of human 2.0":
