    My next one would then be Parry (wrote the tune Jerusalem to 'And did those feet').
    It's the Siegfried Jerusalem as a single follow-on that I was querying.
    Life is so much simpler over on Alphabet Assocs.

    "...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..."

        SJ = Heldentenor? Maybe we do only need one Christmas party game?

        It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

                  Would Schubert's "Alte Liebe rostet nie" work?
                  (According to Google translate "Old Love Never Rusts", I'll be amazed if a rusty connection can be made. Richard Wigmore has "Old love never dies").
