!995. Should be vintage Higginbottom. Be ready for the psalms! Has anyone heard NCO live lately under its new directorship?

[Y Mab Afradlon]

Has anyone heard NCO live lately under its new directorship?

Not as often as I'd like to but there are webcasts which appear all too infrequently. I've been informed that they have had issues with the mixing desk.

They are on top form in my opinion.

There was the broadcast Ash Wednesday service of course.

Robert Quinney top chap in my book.

Purcell and Humfrey terrific under Higginbottom's inspired leadership. Strings a bonus in Praise the Lord.

For those interested, here's a short piece about NCO choir featuring Robert Quinney.
