Anyone catch Evensong from Christ Church today? Not the kind of stuff I usually go for, yet for some reason Palestrina's music always mesmerizes me. Oh to have been there...

The Twelve by Walton is always amazing as well! |

What more could one want than a splendid Choral Evensong this week from Winchester Cathedral, topped off by Sarah Baldock's wonderful playing of the first movement of Elgar's Organ Sonata, Op.28  _________________ The older I get, the better I was. |

Haven't seen the order of service, and missed the broadcast as always, due to having to play for an afternoon service.
Were there any hymn descants?  |

sounds good to me ..
although dont know the hymn ..

Went to St Johns Coll Cambs yesterday as they were recording Choral Evensong for 22ND July ... a joint service sung with Kings College
-
It was pretty stormy outside and a might roar of thunder could be heard just before the final Amen of the last collect.
very nice service. 3 pieces by Elgar ( should keep Jason happy !)
Stanford in A ....
psalm 139 ( skeats ) was fantastic ( as per st Johns cd 'world of psalms )
and Mr Rutter there too ...

I dont expect every hymn to have a descant at the end , but when you have such great hymns about like 'Praise my soul ' it is nice to hear the Choir sing this ... |
