  • Lovely, Chuck!
    This is the second work of yours that I could hear at lessons & carols at King's.
    The other being your Ave Maria of several days ago.

    Thank you, Jackson!
    Your opinions are always most appreciated, especially the present one concerning lessons & carols at King's. I should be so fortunate if that were to come to pass.

    In passing, I've about settled on some change in the Ave Maria a 8, following on your suggestions. If you have some preference(s), I'd appreciate your input. Many thanks for this and for all that you do for us here at the forum.
  • They are both very wonderful, and I echo MJO‘s above statement.

    Also including an MP3 concert recording of the 2007 performance by the Phipps Festival Chorus.
