My review of Music, Politics and Society in Ancient Rome (Cambridge University Press, 2023) by Harry Morgan is now published in the Journal of the American Musicological Society (Spring 2026).
My thanks to the editorial team for their careful stewardship of the review.

Just noticed my ancient music albums have crossed 500k listens.
Feeling quietly grateful that such a niche corner of cultural history continues to resonate with people around the world.
“Graphic announcing 10,000 monthly listeners, with a humorous comparison to the population of Vatican City and a playful reference to the Pope streaming the album.”
10,000 monthly listeners — roughly the population of Vatican City.
Which means the Pope has streamed it.
This is how statistics work. #AncientMusic #Composer #NowStreaming #10kListeners
Silent scrobbles!

No big orange bottle of Lucozade!! Get well soon.

A T rex just appeared over our hedge 😁. After the appropriate amount of eye rubbing and general disbelief I saw it had pulled into the farm for a pit stop 😁
Hahah some of them are so crazy 😁

Well if you’re me with state of the world insomnia, you are pootling away on your computer at 12 am and then suddenly it’s 2am and you have to leg it upstairs to bed so you are functional in the morning 😁
Happy Eid to all who celebrate it

Hyundai MEA advert in 2023 with Michael Tedstone, Glenn Sharp and the late great Hossam Ramzy. It goes with the music so well !! Thanks Audio Network for the placement 😊
The track Bacchus from my album The Music of Ancient Rome hit 100,000 streams last night. When I wrote the album it was part of my PhD submission and I wasn't sure that anyone would stream it. It's so niche. Turns out lots of people listened. Thank you so much.

Just saw that a piece I wrote with Michael Tedstone was used in a short film that won an Oscar nomination last year. Thanks to Audio Network for the placement and to the director Yegane Moghaddam. What a lovely film !
