I’m not sure how I first came across this video – but it is definitely my favourite version of this song.

My Brass Banding
It was inevitable that somewhere in the list of “types of musical group I have participated in” I would eventually get to Brass Bands as that has been where the majority of my music making has been done.
Orthodox Easter
I will come clean up front in this post and say that I am sure that there will be plenty who do not appreciate this music – but then again, I suspect that is true not only of these links I am posting, but of every piece of music ever written 😃
Easter Day
There is, perhaps, no music more associated with Easter than the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel’s Messiah. That said, it is not my choice for today. Instead I give you the finale of the oratorio – the chorus “Worthy is the Lamb” and the tremendous closing Amen.
Angelic Choir
When I was living and working in Wien there were lots of things about my life that were very different to the ‘normal’ that I had become used to. Perhaps none more so than the Sunday routine which was slightly strange in that all of a sudden I had nothing that I HAD to do on a Sunday. More often than not I would find a concert to attend – there was certainly no lack of choice in the city and my flat was within walking distance of the Musikverein, the Konzerthaus and the Staatsoper.
Music For Spy Wednesday
I am not intending this series to have much of a theme usually, but it seems right that over the next few days I post some music that fits in some way with Easter.
Places of Worship
A visit to any destination often includes visiting the Churches, Cathedrals, Abbeys or other places of worship – often stunning examples of architecture. All of these photographs are from the interior of churches, etc..
This album will pop to the top of the list each time new images are added.
Stained Glass Windows
Stained glass windows are beautiful – but often difficult to photograph. Here are just some of my attempts.
This is another album that will pop to the top of the list each time new images are added.
