BBC Choral Evensong: Rochester Cathedral 1979 (Barry Ferguson)

A true choirmaster!

It would be great to get hold of recordings of the broadcasts from Rochester on 19 November 1980 and 7 December 1983

Good news Andrew, both of those broadcasts are in a batch of tapes which will be delivered to me in the next month or so.

Fab!

Stanley Vann''s influence clearly evident! Hylton Stewart in C is pretty poor. A shame nobody (other than us at Wakefield) does his far superior First Mode Service.

Interestingly, Canterbury broadcast it in 1949 and again in 1954 - though no recordings are known to survive, and I don't think I've heard it live anywhere!!
