I am not out of my mind, most excellent Festus, but I utter words of sober truth.

This is such a wonderful piece of music. This clip is taken from a series which has been on TV a couple of times. That is the lovely Elen Manahan-Thomas singing the high notes. This kind of music suits her voice perfectly. The Sixteen is my very favourite choir. I do think Harry Christophers deserved to be recognised in the New Year’s Honours for his services to music.
I have probably mentioned this before, but I heard them once in St Paul’s Cathedral singing Tallis’s Spem in Alium in the round, underneath the dome. I really thought I had died and gone to heaven.
Thank you for posting this, webmaster. If anyone feels fraught, they should listen to this.

Saying thank you for this Stuart is rather inadequate – but thanks anyway.
