About Miss Mussel

Hello! I’m The Omniscient Mussel. Thanks for stopping by. On this site you’ll find comment on things at least tenuously related to classical music and culture with regular features like The Weekly Quiz and Spine Tinglers alongside out and out silliness.

Miss Mussel has been heavily influenced by Emily Post and Sir Donald Francis Tovey and hopes to continue in the tradition of insightful commentary overlaid by razor sharp wit. Failing that, hopefully you’ll at least enjoy the videos.

Offline, Miss Mussel’s alter ego Marcia Adair, is a classical music critic, ghostwriter, and photographer living just west of The Centre Of The Universe.
