Happy 150th Birthday Maurice Ravel!
Chopin b otd 1810! What a composer - he created music utterly unlike anything before (or since). Frequently using dance forms, he expressed universal emotions in a uniquely Polish language . Master of tragic beauty, his music moves us deeply - almost inexplicably. A true genius.
Here’s my verdict on AI art. No matter how much money they waste on it, these problems won’t go away.
"In Conversation with Andrea Lindmayr-Brandl" on Thursday 27 February, 16.00-17.00 (GMT). It will celebrate her contribution to Schubert studies and offer space to reflect on the significance of Schubert studies in the twenty-first century. Zoom link below:

The crisis facing musicology degrees is down to their commandeering and misrepresentation. This used to be the most challenging degree in the humanities: science, art, language, physical technique. It should never be a soft option. February's Long View classical-music.uk/opinion/articl…
It shouldn’t surprise us that AI is a tool used by the police state of 1984 to keep the population in check. As it advances, its uses are likely to become more sinister: mass surveillance, the building of weapons systems, an endless flood of slop and distractions.
The part of George Orwell’s 1984 that everyone forgets is how the music and publishing industries have been replaced by a machine that spits out songs and bad novels “without any human intervention.” The goal is to keep you from ever having to think.
75 years ago today, Dinu Lipatti gave a heroic performance of Chopin's E Minor Concerto in Zurich. This performance and the recording of it is part of an incredibly long & involved story that was part of one of the biggest scandals in the history of recordings. Details linked:
Join me next Tuesday 11 Feb for the Third Online Book Symposium of the Schubert Research Centre, Vienna, where I'll be discussing _Schubert's String Quartets_ with Steven Vande Moortele, Markus Böggemann and Lorraine Byrne Bodley. 4PM UK time. Zoom link: oeaw.ac.at/kis/aktivitaet…

It's Schubert's birthday today. How can you possibly sum up music of such depth yet also such lightness of touch? One of the most deeply-beloved composer, I think, because he expresses so directly the joys and sorrows of being human. What a gift.
Today we mark the birthday of Franz Schubert (1797-1828). By way of celebration and tribute, check out this documentary on the recently published biography by leading Schubert scholarship, Professor Lorraine Byrne Bodley. Happy birthday Franz! 🥳 youtu.be/uJMVD4kvKws?si…
Franz Schubert was born 228 years ago today As well as being a great composer he was a genius, a rebel, an unrequited lover, a tragic figure in western music history He left us a truly wonderful legacy for which we should be very thankful
Roommate’s ex majored in philosophy and is now a train driver. I said “you’re uniquely prepared for a situation where there are five people on one track and one person on another” and he politely chuckled. I’m unappreciated in my time.
🎶 New in paperback! Improvisation in Music and Philosophical Hermeneutics is the first book to examine the overlooked relationship between musical improvisation and philosophical hermeneutics. Learn more: bit.ly/49HDqVx Read the introduction: bit.ly/4ghjoDI
