Lance,
I attended L&C at St. Thomas Sat, Sun and Mon with different choral items each day - fabulous; I hope you were able to catch some of it on the livestream down there. I was chatting w/ a veteran parishoner on Sunday, and he remarked how much better the Choir sounds now under John Scott than previously under Gerre Hancock No new Choral Programs available as of last Monday; I'll check this weekend. For all the Rutter fans out there, Scott gave a nod w/ a beautiful job on The Sans Day Carol.
I missed King's College L&C, usually live broadcast over NPR network(radio) @ 10am, this year; unsure what happened. Otherwise occuppied then too.
I hope you are all enyoying THE Twelve Days ... |

Didn't particularly enjoy the tone of the trebles this week from New College, Oxford. A bit too shrill for my liking

I'm afraid that NCO has disappointed me on several previous occasions too in recent years. I have an excellent LP (but nothing to play it on!) of a choral evensong in David Lumsden's time. Can't remember who the organist was, but it included Leighton responses, Ps 139, Stanford in A and I've forgotten what anthem. |

I see that NCO are getting good reviews currently on the Radio 3 Messageboard. I remember being dissapointed a few years ago with an Ash Wednesday broadcast they did - seemed too closely miked, and a very affected recitation of the Confession, among other things. |
