We are sad to share with you the news that Oxford Brookes University has decided to close its music department. Below a statement from the music team - we are all devastated.

And it is #imagesofresearch day 5 already! With the world going upside-down, here’s a soothing image of a Butterfly-themed party that took place at the Società del Giardino of Milan in 1907 (Ars et Labor).
Day 4 of #imagesofresearch, and I have quite a beautiful and interesting one coming from the December-1907 issue of Ars et Labor… have I missed something? ❤️

Welcome to day 3 of #imagesofresearch! Today, I give you a little snapshot of La Bohème’s autograph score, where Puccini marked the moment of Mimi’s death in a rather clear way 😂

It’s day 2 of #imagesofresearch! Today, the beautiful title page of Musica e Musicisti - Gazzetta musicale di Milano from August 1903. Reminiscent of Venice and, for me, of Losey’s Don Giovanni, although it did not yet exist!
Starting a challenge with myself today: upload an image from my research every day for 30 days! Let’s start with a hilarious one of Puccini on a camel by the Pyramids! #imagesofresearch

We are proud but also rather overwhelmed that 91.7% of our music finalists declared that they were happy with their programme! It was a very tough year for staff and students, who worked together to make it a success. #NSS2021

Last performed in the UK in 1987, Gluck's The Crown from @bamptonopera on May 18 will be the first live performance attended by a live audience at @StJohnsSmithSq since the start of the third lockdown in England. Lovely. #Classical #Opera blog.thoroughlygood.me/2021/…

I just love Tim Blanning’s books ❤️ make me want to learn to play continuo and go back in time to accompany Frederick the Great. Although I would have had to be a man. – at Tottenham, London

I am excited and honoured to make history as the first woman President of the @royalmusical. I am joined by 5 all-female Vice-Presidents (another first). Together we can work for the vitality of the music discipline in all its diversity! @RNCMvoice @RNCMresearch

Attended the solemn mass at Sant’Ambrogio. Nobody is as good at rituality as the Catholic Church (in this case, Ambrosian as well).
