I know at my former parish there was a "big" anthem by Simper some of the older choir members asked for once, which they hadn't done since long before I joined them. I found it deep in the cobwebs of the storage room and we did it, to their great delight. i cannot now recall the tune, title or even holy day... I'll see if I have a copy now.
JulieColl, I don't recall ever having been described in that manner, but it is something to aspire to, thank you. I've always considered myself a laggard.
