It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

Torke says, “I have always wanted to write a composition that would inspire a woman, coming home from a long day of work, to draw a bath, light candles, and listen to it on her pink iPod.”

I was a tad irritated by the assumption that it would be an option for a woman after a long day at work, since for many coming home is the start to another round of work...

Johann Sebastian Bach
Aus tiefer Noth schrey ich zu dir
Composer: Michael Praetorius. Choir: Huelgas Ensemble.
Could the 2010 album EA mentions be "PraeBachtorius"?
In which case, https://www.allmusic.com/album/praeb...s-mw0001959365 lists:
#27 BWV 38: Aus tieffer Noth schrey ich zu dir, Johann Sebastian Bach, 01:16
#28 Musae Sioniae: Aus tieffer Noth schrey ich zu dir, Michael Praetorius, 01:00
#29 BWV 38: Ob bei uns ist der Sünden viel, Johann Sebastian Bach, 02:36
They did something similar on the Early Music Show "The Huelgas Ensemble at the 2009 Edinburgh Festival".

A piece in the Guardian today suggests that radio audiences are moving their listening to later in the morning. If true, this might explain Essential Classics's popularity, though I didn't find the argument convincing. I look forward to m'learned friend's comments on RAJAR figures anon.

Originally posted by cloughie View PostCertainly seems that way - can’t blame him really - don’t know if it was Covid but his voice sounded strange for a while!
I had thought that Petroc's ancestral home is fairly far south on the Lizard Peninsula - if so it's a fair old trek to Truro from there.
