    The particulars for the post suggest that the interviews are not taking place until tomorrow, nor the choral trials until Friday...

        No, it's not true.

          So much for your friend. As a bemused David Price writes on his Facebook page: "Who knew? I was, very briefly, the new Organist of Magdalen College this morning. At least on the BBC message boards."

            The College has made two new appointments to Fellowships connected to the Chapel and Choir. Dr Jonathan Arnold will start as the new Dean of Divinity on 1 July.  He is currently Chaplain at Worcester College, Oxford and is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society. More information about Dr Arnold can be found here. […]


            Mark Williams of Jesus College, Cambridge, is to be Informator Choristarum from 1/1/17.

                Hmm. HUGE step up, I'd say.
                BUT delighted he's got it. Grapevine seems to suggest top organist.
                VBW to Mr Williams.

                  It's the same step that the present incumbent took.

                    I was about to say the same - a veritable conveyor belt between Ies:Coll:Cantab and Magd:Coll:Oxon...

                    He'll be missed at Jesus - the choir's as good as it has ever been, I think. I was listening to (I believe) their most recent CD only the other day - very very good:



                    "...the isle is full of noises,
                    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
