Bryan Ferry to receive an honorary degree

Bryan Ferry will be given an honorary degree by Newcastle University today, the same week his Roxy Music cohort receives a similar accolade at Reading University.

From www.theindependant.ie  

The Roxy Music singer and songwriter is being made an honorary Doctor of Music from the university where he graduated in Fine Art in 1968. 

Four years later, his band emerged and became one of the most influential of the 1970s, producing classic albums such as For Your Pleasure and Avalon. 

Bryan, 69 and born in Washington, Tyne and Wear, said: "I feel honoured to have been awarded this doctorate from my former university.

"I enjoyed my time at Newcastle, and was fortunate to study with some great teachers and fellow students.

"It was an inspiring time to be an art student in Newcastle, and the city also had an exciting music scene.

"Music and art have guided my life, and it all started at Newcastle University."
 
Newcastle University's registrar, Dr John Hogan, said: "We are delighted to welcome back and honour one of our graduates who has achieved so much in his field.

"Newcastle University has an excellent reputation for education in art and music and Mr Ferry is a great example and inspiration to our students graduating in those disciplines this summer."

Leipzig - A Statement

The following statement is from Bryan Ferry's management:.

"The regrettable cancellation of the two concerts in Leipzig was unavoidable and solely due to the actions of the promoter. Bryan was 100% ready to deliver the orchestral shows and all the arrangements of the songs had been produced, rehearsed and delivered.

This matter is now being pursued by Bryan's lawyers but we apologise to all the fans who have been disappointed or are currently having difficulty reclaiming the ticket refund.
We are also aware that the promoter failed to take proper steps to notify ticket holders.

Bryan and the team were very upset not to be able to present this new show in Leipzig, which will now have to receive its debut in Dublin next week."
