To say that it has been an utter joy to rehearse and play with our Rncm students is an understatement. Life affirming stuff within difficult times for musicians. These guys give us much hope. Come watch tonight 8pm. rncm.ac.uk/performance/th… @RNCMvoice @jyoungpiano Richard Collins
Very chuffed indeed that the brilliant Elena Urioste and Tom Poster are playing a piece I wrote for them today. Going out live from Wigmore Hall on BBC Radio 3 at 1pm. Thanks guys!! 😘
Was so incredibly chuffed to be asked to write something for Elena and Tom, amazing people and musicians. Check out their project #UriPosteJukebox . Here is a Slow Air I wrote for them.
Rncm Quartet coaching continues!! Here are the Abelo Quartet (England, Slovakia, Hong Kong and N Ireland). Nothing can stop us! @RNCMvoice @jyoungpiano Chris Hoyle #rncm remote #rncm #dowhatyoulove #banishtheisolationblues
I was lucky to be isolating with these two beauties. Here’s a song - “Donald of the Donalds” featuring the magical @mischamacpherson and the magnificent Arthur ❤️. Full version on insta. #COVIDceilidh #gaelicsong #tunesfromhome #dogsarebest
I had a guitar smashed on a flight with Aer Lingus a few weeks ago. I've tried the various online routes they make you go down to claim for this horrendous damage, but they have ceased to communicate with me. Share if you agree this is unacceptable behaviour for an airline.
20 September @Kingsplace don't miss the #EliasQuartet perform Sally Beamish's Reed Stanzas inspired by elias quartet's Donald Grant - he doubles as a Scottish fiddle player. Her 3rd quartet evokes windswept landscapes of #Suffolk & #Harris & the call of the lapwing. #VenusUnwrapped

To all people who love Scotland.

Being Scottish is not about where you were born, it is a state of mind
