Brilliant to see coverage of @DCMS guidance, & its impact on amateur choirs, will be discussed on both @BBCRadio3 (w/@Voicedoctor_uk) & @BBCRadio4 (w/@bobchilcott) tonight. #ChoirsMatter #singingmatters

It’s more than the loss of work (and I’ve lost fees @DCMS @OliverDowden). I hadn’t anticipated the emotional cost of being treated so disproportionately. It’s exhausting justifying your work every day. It’s tempting the best to leave this profession. #ChoirsMatter #singingmatters

I have written to @OliverDowden (@DCMS & @DCMSArts) to ask about the rationale for the restrictions placed on non-professional singing - the guidance states that only 6 singers can meet in an indoor space. We should see the evidence that has led to these tight strictures.

"There’s been no evidence to show that singing indoors is more dangerous now than it was a few weeks ago." We agree with @Voicedoctor_uk speaking on @BBCRadio4 this morning - @DCMS need to show us the science.

This is superbly written. I wonder if @OliverDowden and his mates at @DCMS have read this? The entire choral world is on the same page. @amybebbs1 @davidlmusic @Kadamsonsuzuki @suzidigby @SusanHollingwo1 @abcdtweets @MakingMusic_UK @ISM_music @SingUpTweets @musicmarkuk

There is no mention of choirs in SAGE minutes since Oct 2020, & at that time they were grouped with gyms & indoor exercise classes as comparable in terms of infection risk, and assumes no face coverings used @DCMS @OliverDowden #ChoirsMatter Para 29 gov.uk/government/publicatio…

Agree but could you look again at the rules about singing please. They don't really make sense given the other communal activities that are now allowed. Always good to show that you are prepared to think again.

Amateur choirs have been left bitterly disappointed, as restrictions say non-professional singing can only take place in groups of six indoors.

We call for indoor singing activity in England to be brought in line with the guidance of 17th May for other non-professional music activity and indoor organised sports activity: makingmusic.org.uk/news/engl…

"Research conducted among members shows - at best - 2/3 of participants have engaged online, leading to the exclusion of at least an estimated 250,000 people across the nation who would usually engage actively in music." 🗣️🎵 @OliverDowden @DCMS makingmusic.org.uk/news/road…

We may love football, photography and gardening... but don't we all love music too? 🎶 Have a read of our open letter to @OliverDowden of @DCMS, which asks #LeisureTimeMusic groups to be allowed to organise outdoor activity with immediate effect 👇 makingmusic.org.uk/news/road…
