Another evening of delightful seasonal music @yorkearlymusic like stepping back into a seventeenth century family Christmas with a few old friends. Gentle and jolly, bold and boisterous at the end. Beautifully performed and presented by @SiglodeOroVocal and @spinacino_con

The context in Scotland is exceedingly grim when it comes to the extent of ongoing government failure and continuing cuts pulling the rug from under everything that makes a society worth having from health and local government to further education to arts and culture.
The closure of @CreativeScots Open Fund for Individuals is yet another blow for Scotland's culture sector, this time cutting right at its heart with many artists, writers and producers unable to access the support they need need to sustain their practice buff.ly/3YOY4iQ

Strange request for a Saturday night, but does anyone have images of F-Sm 222 C.22 (Bibliotheque Municipale, Strasbourg)? In particular folio 72v and the piece 'O zi mine my'? (Even better if it is a transcription!) I have a hunch I can't let go!

Lovely unscripted moment this morning in the Welsh Parliament as a brilliant young choir from Ysgol Treganna in Cardiff - singing Safwn yn y Bwlch in rehearsal - bump into the Prime Minister (watch their reaction at the end 🎶)
