Hot off the press...

http://www.classicalmusic.org.uk/

Classical Musical UK describes itself as "the Online Guide for Classical Music in the United Kingdom" and if all goes to plan looks set to reorganise (revolutionize seems a bit strong) the online face of classical music, making it one of the only sites offering up-to-date jobs; quick guides to composers, UK orchestras and opera houses and most importantly exciting interviews with contemporary musicians. Now I realise that this sounds like a publicity plug and it is, because I have a vested interest in this site :) One of CMUK's features is that before each interview a group of performers/composers/people interested in classical music brainstorm questions for the interviewees. So as a member of this group, it's a given that I'd say it's worth taking a look! An interview with the Allegri String Quartet has just been published, and next up are the results of meetings with conductor-speaker-teacher Benjamin Zander and violinist, recently turned temporary busker, Tasmin Little.
