Today something really amazing happened @bbcradio3 @BBCSounds. For over a year, I've been working with our incredible team @overcoatmedia on a music podcast unlike any that's ever been heard before. And now, it's finally here: bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/p0g8s… I'd love you to tune in ❤️
It's finally here. One of the biggest things @overcoatmedia has ever done, with a truly all-star cast. This is FACING THE MUSIC. Listen to the box set @BBCSounds RIGHT NOW or listen daily on @BBCRadio3 at 9.30pm for the next fortnight bbc.in/41n02Io #facingthemusic

Delighted to be honoured by @RoyalPhilSoc with their Storytelling award for CLASSICAL AFRICA, which I produced for @overcoatmedia @BBCRadio3, presented by the wonderful @leonbosch. I don't get to do as much hands-on producing these days so it's a huge thrill personally to win 🥰

The RPS Storytelling Award goes to Classical Africa @BBCRadio3 @overcoatmedia. 'So many doors are opened, opening our ears to a complex and captivating tapestry of sounds and ideas. A range of African musicians share their insights, compelling us to explore further'. #RPSAwards

@BBCRadio3 @PetrocTrelawny guyssss, not quite sure what happened there but that wasn't Blumine! We heard the 2nd mvt of the final version of Mahler 1 - not Blumine

I realise this is a surreal thing to break my X silence for but the historical instrument performance by @collegium1704 of Smetana's Ma Vlast on @BBCRadio3 today was UTTERLY extraordinary and you should stop what you're doing and listen to it right now bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0027m…

Replying to @TheKnowledge_GU
@TheKnowledge_GU In light of Taylor Harwood-Bellis's 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 goal: in the last 40 years, 14 outfield players have made their England debut while at @SouthamptonFC, with no fewer than 4 of them (28.5%) scoring on debut (Wallace, Shearer, Lambert, TH-B). Can any club beat this hitrate?

Hello @FirstYork, the driver of your scheduled 1428 no.10 bus from York station to Stamford Bridge just pulled into the wrong bay 50 yards away (should be RC, pulled into RA) waited no more than 25 seconds, then pulled off leaving about half a dozen people confused and stranded.

The driver was running 10 mins late and clearly didn't want to pick anyone up, despite people who had been waiting more than 40 mins since the last one. Luckily this was all captured on station CCTV so it's not hard to check. Can you let me know what you're going to do?

Cancel all the snark and the rain and the unevenness: the Olympic cauldron suspended by hot air balloon in the sky is an absolutely SENSATIONAL idea. Utterly, utterly brilliant. Chapeau 🎩 #OpeningCeremony

Despite this being razzer underwhelming and badly planned for TV there have been a small collection of really nice moments: the flag pyros, metal at the Conciergerie, the Louvre paintings coming to life and the Marseillaise setpiece all brill. Rest...not so much #OpeningCeremony

Very sad to hear about the death of Ray Reardon - a real one-off and a lovely, sparky man. Here's me and @MikeBubbins meeting one of Wales' first ever sporting World Champions a few years back. (The show we made isn't online, but you can see info here: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000px6…)

Some quite magnificent sh*thousing from the last player still out on the course to actually end up leading #TheOpen WITH LITERALLY 20 MINS OF THE HIGHLIGHTS LEFT PLAYING OUT ON @BBCTwo 😆 VT editor sweating furiously rn

Anyone under the impression Finns aren't demonstrative with emotion should check out Harri Heliovaara's reaction to winning the men's doubles. Magnificent 🇫🇮🎾❤️ #Wimbledon2024 #suomi #doubles
