        If we can distinguish between Jonathan Scott, John Scott and John Scott Whiteley, I'm sure Joseph Wicks and Joe Wicks will not cause us difficulty.

            Listened on the car radio. Fascinating to know which bits were directed by whom. One lovely bit was the opening of the Coll Reg Mag, where the first short phrase was sung by one lot of trebles (Johns?) and the next by the other. I found some of the balance a bit awry, the choral sound changing in focus or 'forwardness'. I guess the Chapel's a difficult place for the engineers, especially balancing with the organ. Can anyone find our thread from the original broadcast date in 2015?

            Big credit should go to both choirs for doing the Psalms so well; always tricky when choirs using different pointing come together.

              Yes, agree about psalms - much tidier than expected - well, by me!
              Very slight feeling that the organ behind the Nunc was a bit...well....nervous?
