Scotland hires anti-Israel pianist

Scotland hires anti-Israel pianist

The activist Australian pianist Jayson Gillham, who provoked a crisis at the Melbourne Symphony with an anti-Israel diatribe, has been invited to join the staff of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland as Lecturer in Keyboard.

‘There is nothing more rewarding and inspiring than working with the next generation of talented young musicians!’ he says.

The college will presumably keep an eye on some of his wilder teachings.
