George Butterworth and contemporaries

Terrific week. One of the few COTWs of which i have listened to every minute.

The best thing on the wireless for a long time.

I agree - many thanks, Pabs

I should have said that everything after 3'56" is me, but based on the 12 bars of Allegro vivace GSKB left us, plus one of the Sussex folk songs.

On Sunday evening David John Pike and Ian Burnside are giving the Shropshire Lad songs somewhere around Thiepval. In the morning David is singing the British and French anthems, The Lads in their Hundreds and With Rue My Heart Is Laden in a service at the monument. He'll be accompanied by a French brass group. All arrangements by Pabsy. I'm very proud.

Lastly, did anyone get a recording of Dennis Browne's The Comic Spirit? I'd love to get hold of it.

On one of my last remaining D90 cassettes, Pabs - for what it's worth...

(BTW, having just now listend to "your" version of the Fantasia, I must say it hangs much more together as a coherent musical narrative than what we heard on COTW yesterday - so, thanks again!).

Very kind, SA, but there'll be far too much trouble digitalising that and sending it over the internet!
