Thank you so much for posting that, Wolsey

[EdgeleyRob]

Well what an evening's listening,Howells Hymnus Paradisi too.
I'm all over the place.

[mercia]

that programme booklet seems to indicate quite a close relationship between Britten and the King's choir whereas previously I thought I'd read that Britten didn't particularly like the 'pure English cathedral sound'.

[jean]

Britten certainly did like the Westminster Cathedral sound, which in those days was very different from King's.

[DracoM]

Totally agree, jean. Bit surprised at the claim of the 'close relationship' with KCC too.
