That question is the heart of this episode, and it captures everything that matters about the moment we're in as choral musicians. This episode is a deep dive into AI: what it actually is, how we got here, and why Beth believes it represents one of the greatest opportunities choral music has had in… [Listen](https://www.buzzsprout.com/1131989/episodes/12764112-82-why-choral-music-needs-to-pay-attention-to-ai.mp3) ## [And hath exalted the humble and meek](https://quiresandplaces.com/blogs/from-quires-places/and-hath-exalted-the-humble-and-meek) _2026-01-15 · Tim Popple · Quires and Places - From Quires and Places..._ Royalty. Celebrity organists. Famous former choristers. Even politicians can trace their lineage back to choristerships. The vein of choral music is rich with dazzling success and rightful pride in the achievements of those who have benefitted from its existence. For all the excellent things they do to raise awareness of English Sacred Choral Music, however, it is not those I wanted to focus on… ## [Let no tongue on earth be silent.](https://quiresandplaces.com/blogs/from-quires-places/let-no-tongue-on-earth-be-silent) _2025-09-28 · Tim Popple · Quires and Places - From Quires and Places..._ The below post was originally a talk given on Michaelmas, at St Michael and All Angels, Mount Dinham, on Saturday 27 September 2025. Some of the text has been adapted to reflect the different audience reading this post. ---------------------------------------- Spain, the late 4th century. In the cooling evening sun a Spanish poet sits down to write. England, the mid 19th century. A translator… ## [Five Years Old!](https://quiresandplaces.com/blogs/from-quires-places/five-years-old) _2025-08-05 · Tim Popple · Quires and Places - From Quires and Places..._ Five years. F I V E. If this page/account/website/niche-content-provision was human, it would off to school in September. Fortunately, for all concerned, it has not yet gained sentience. This is helped by its being run by a choral singer, not best known for their consciousness at the best of times. (And August, for a choral singer, is not the best of times.) Five years is a lot of memes. Let's… ## [Challenging musical canons - a research project](http://www.evabeneke.com/blog/2024/4/24/challenging-musical-canons-a-research-project-at) _2025-06-29 · Eva Beneke · Blog - EVA BENEKE_ Our research project has been granted a three year grant by the Norwegian Academy of Music!

Ich verschlang einiges an Büchern, die mich bewegt haben, z. B. Invisible Women von Caroline Criado Perez – eine Empfehlung meiner argentinischen Kollegin Carolina Folmer. Aber der Blick in die Gitarrenszene und auf die Programme in Konzerten, Wettbewerben und bei Festivals hat mir nicht mehr gefallen. Irgendwann stand… ## [Female composers for classical guitar - an Interview with New Classical Guitar (Copy)](http://www.evabeneke.com/blog/2024/7/18/female-composers-for-classical-guitar-an-interview-with-new-classical-guitar-s2f7b) _2025-06-15 · Eva Beneke · Blog - EVA BENEKE_ In the canon of the classical guitar repertoire, the term "underrepresented" is still a rather euphemistic way of talking about female composers! Why is that? Well, we can thank the 19th century in particular, where the bourgeoisie with its patriarchal structures assigned women a very limited place in society: namely children, cooking, church.
