Publisher's Summary
This thing caught us all unawares. Disney were preparing to launch their new subscription TV channel on March 24, in many European countries, including the UK, just as those countries headed into lockdown. Disney’s course of action was clear: They immediately stopped production on their new content, told the content creators they couldn’t afford to pay them and laid them off, put all their existing content online for free, and appealed to the public for donations to help them through the current crisis.
Just kidding. Obviously.
So where did I get that nonsensical example? Say hello, ladies and gentlemen, to the fairytale world of classical music.
Stranded in London when the Coronavirus pandemic hit, Welsh opera singer Paul Carey Jones began chronicling the voyage of the classical music industry through the perils - and opportunities - of a global crisis. Based on his hit blog series Coronaclassical, this book is his lockdown story so far.
What the critics say
"An addictively brilliant writer." (Support Action)
"Something good to come out of lockdown." (John Suchet)
