call me ishmael: MATINS

Sunday 3 April 2011

Dick the Prick said...: Sun beating through window; a jolly matin indeed. There's a couple of progs on Rd3 - Early Music Show (as in old stuff) and Choral Evensong which are very good indeed and I think this one would be perfectly at home in either show. Muchos gracias Senor.; 3 April 2011 at 10:45

I took a couple of ne'er-do-well sneerers. "Classical shite? Pah!" In the bag now they are. It was a breathtaking display of brilliance.; 3 April 2011 at 12:13

It's the Early Church Music series on BBC Four, mr dtp, that's the one, the presenter's a prick, as usual, but the music's a revelation.; 4 April 2011 at 01:57
mongoose said...: Take care at the start, Mr I. I think it sounds almost discordant but that is just Mr B setting the scene.

I'd never heard the like of it - all that racket from a sparrow of a woman with just one violin. As loud as you like.; 4 April 2011 at 11:10
