A happy penguin - the starting point for this morning’s Essential Classics Playlist, if you’d be so kind as to suggest an idea, inspired by music for a 5 minute ballet about Penguins by Herbert Howells. Not, I think, something he wrote for Evensong. Join me 9.30 @BBCRadio3.

Howells, A Hymn for St Cecilia.
The Autograph manuscript from the Worshipful Company of Musicians. The only piece he ever wrote that was to be sung in procession!

Tonight's Choral Evensong is based on John 18.33-37 'Pilate questions Jesus - are you a King'. Led by Canon Simon the service includes music by Frith, Murrill, Leighton and Howells (Hymn to St Cecilia, whose feast day it was yesterday).
