    Just realised this was broadcast exactly 53 years ago today... we had the same Gospel reading at the Cathedral in Singapore today!

    Every piece is fantastic here! As per usual with Barry Rose!!
  • Colin, that was terrific! The tenor line in the Psalm ( . . for His mercies endure for ever") was incrdibly moving! Hope you are all well. We attend Bangor Cathedral but less as the poxy LgTB takes over!! Alan Newble

    The Parsons is at perfect tempo. There are some long phrases in there, but this, of all things, can not be rushed.

    Is that what Guildford Cathedral looked like before with a modern monstrosity?
