"An opera company is defined by its chorus and orchestra." Three of my greatest colleagues put their finger on the heart of it.

1/2 The end of an exciting & historic day @wabbey. 1. I gave @WAbbeyChoir choristers a well-deserved weekend off. Today (for the 1st time) all three services were sung by the Lay Vicars 6 sopranos. Haydn Te Deum, Poulenc Mass, Messiaen & 3 mvts of Rachmaninoff Vespers. A feast!

Happy 80th birthday to the great Philip Moore! At @wabbey Evensong we sang his 'Hear my prayer, O heavenly Father.' It sets words by Charles Dickens, who is buried in Poets' Corner. Happy Birthday, Philip, and thank you for so many decades enriching the British Choral Tradition.

I'll eat the large hadron collider (pictured) if this stunning contemporary collection isn't my choral record of the year.
