Remembering Sir Edward Elgar who died on this day back in 1934 Much of his music was influenced by his beloved Malvern Hills which inspired him to say 'Music is in the air all around you; you just take as much as you want'

Without doubt, this is a landmark publication of a wrongly overlooked and genuinely brilliant Romantic piano masterpiece, and for advanced pianists, it is surely an essential purchase.

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

I got asked to review the new Bärenreiter edition of Schumann's cello concerto and I am SO excited about this. I'm also almost certainly going to go massively over the word limit because of being this excited. If I get any more nerdy about this my head will explode 🎻🤯
