The delay in inducting #Ozzy into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and others is disappointing. It's time to consider a broader title of your "Hall of Fame" to accurately reflect the artists who deserve recognition. You are obviously not just ROCK and ROLL!
We can celebrate all genres and honor the true legends of music,. Why on earth would you induct Jimmy Buffet after he has passed? Whatever your taste in music does not matter to me. You need to change the name brand. Take it from someone who love all genres. This is Rock!!!!!!!!!! #MusicHallOfFame #music #rockandroll #branding #allgenres
Finally, Original Foreigner, as a band. As individuals they need some work. Hopefully they'll pull themselves together for the "official" induction. They'll sound awesome doing .. my guess .. "I Want to Know What Love is" and "Juke Box Hero". BTW how much are tickets going to cost and when will they go on sale?
Congratulations! Kick out the Jams….
Sad Wayne Kramer missed this. RIP brother. I think Machine Gun is the last man standing. It will be interesting to see the contrast between MC5’s radical past and the rock hall meritocracy.
Giving back: always important, especially when it aligns with your organisation's values. Coxswain Alliance sponsors a critical learning and development program with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra; the Fellows. This is about nurturing the talent of the future, building capability. Have a listen to how the seasoned players David and Matthew talk about mentoring young and talented players. It is a nuanced approach that offers multiple avenues for building capability. And Matthew's comment goes to the heart of it. It's not just about being a good player; it's also about being a good colleague. Isn't that the truth!
Next month our Fellows take centre-stage in The Splendour of the Baroque, performing alongside members of the Sydney Symphony and directed by acclaimed early music specialist Erin Helyard.
As part of the Fellowship program, these young musicians receive mentorship from members of our Orchestra. Here, Principal Trumpet David Elton and Principal Emeritus Bassoon Matthew Wilkie talk about their role as mentors of the Fellowship program, revealing some of the many perks of the program and sharing some insights about this special concert.

During a panel at SXSWHans Schafer, SVP of Global Touring, and Jon Lieberberg of Baron Management discussed the growth of live music and how cultural shifts are expanding global audiences, particularly with Latin artists such as Kali Uchis, Bad Bunny and Los Bukis.
"When Los Bukis reached a successful stadium tour, others came too, and now we see more Latin artists doing stadium tours and shows.” — Schafer, on the beginning of Latin acts doing US stadium shows for the first time in music history.
Thank you to Will Chidlow for capturing OutSingCancer choir's INCLUDE event last week so well - if you want a flavour of the events we have been holding across the country, here you go! 🎶
These events, the connections and actions that come out of them would not be possible without Arts Council England funding the Making Music: INCLUDE programme. Thank you!

And jazz ain’t dead!
UK Jazz collective wins Mercury music prize and refs all the good work that goes into supporting artist development in the UK.
In case some of you hadn’t noticed I’m a massive fan and supporter of music and musicians. I also love jazz. And I love those keeping music(and especially jazz) live and alive, growing and reinterpreted.
I used to go to NYC every week for work, now I know I’ve told this story before but if you’ll indulge me. Here is how I used to do the trip
- “Chairman’s flight” out - daytime work 6 hours straight on the plane, no interruptions.
Typically I would review business performance, write the strategy, read any papers / deal reviews / budget requests /investment cases. So full on, no chilling with a movie and red wine.
I’d land around 2 and get to Manhattan and checked in around 5 (traffic) just in time to shower, grab a bite from whole foods and catch the early jazz show at 7:30 to be in bed for 10.
On the last night (flight the next morning, no client meetings) I’d do a late night out. I often used to catch the late jazz set around 11pm when the young “cats” came in to do their thing. I loved it it was live vibrant, referential whilst exploring and pushing the boundary jazz was definately still alive and evolving in front of you.
New York has always been strong for music and in particular jazz, one of the reasons is the strength of the music schools there (jazz is very technical even if it appears free form)
Now I’ve also stated publicly that right now I think London has the edge on the scene so this is a great recognition of both the talent in the uk and the strength of the teaching infrastructure both formal and informal - that’s important and we should all continue to support education, music and live it really makes a difference to young people.
Now whilst we’re at it and I’ve said this before. The UK used to have the worlds biggest music company. And media used to be recognised as the UK’s third largest export (after defence and finance). Let’s do it again! Who’s with me? And whilst we’re at it why don’t we build that studio at last to rival Hollywood?
The moment Ezra Collective won the 2023 Mercury Prize with FREENOW for their album 'Where I'm Meant To Be'!
The winners took a special moment to shout out all the music education organisations across the country who are supporting our next generation of performers - a crucial part of our future talent pipeline providing them with opportunities that they otherwise might not be able to access.
