@amabilechoirs @TomAllenStories Thank you for sharing this music with us! Was so glad to play it on @CBCMusic.
@TomAllenStories Good thing you weren't a trombonist in that performance of the Janacek piece you mentioned. Ouch. 😉
I joined Twitter because I wanted to tweet @TomAllenStories about some excellent programming choice. Literally find myself back here in the remnants of the hellscape that remains to tweet about @CBCMusic playing Gorecki's Symphony of Sorrowful Songs and my 💔#MyTwitterAnniversary
Caught the last five minutes of @TomAllenStories show @CBCAboutTime When my daughter was in elementary I would listen everyday while I waited for her at end of day She’s going to graduate this June and time has been on my mind lately May have to start catching the show again!
Can you give me some idea as to where and when the jailbreak is going to be tonight because I have curling at 8:30 and I really don’t want any trouble.
Nice to see my screen time was up this week.
Anne Murray walking out with Draymond Greene is a JUNO highlight already. #JUNOS

@TomAllenStories Just for fun, go back and listen to Mungo Jerry: In The Summertime. Ch, chch, unh. 😁
@TomAllenStories, I had never heard of Josef Mysliveček before you played his Symphony No. 29. Unannounced I would have sworn it was by Mozart. In the chronology of musical influences even genius has its precedents!
@TomAllenStories Thank you so much for going for it! I’m grateful for the support. 🎵 is in the 📫

How unexpected to hear some of the music of Marc Blitzstein, including the famous pro-union musical from the 1930s, The Cradle Will Rock, directed by Orson Welles, on About Time...they made a fairly good movie about the controversy surrounding it @TomAllenStories
