    8/9 December I think (back-to-back with the Easter 2018 BBC2 service )

    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

      Thanks, ardcarp. Really? Goodness, I am out of touch. I had never heard it before and, as I mentioned, my copy (copyright 1961) doesn't have it. When did the harmonised version appear, I wonder? At St George's, Windsor it has always been the practice to sing the whole Gloria in the responses chorally, yet in this 1988 broadcast the choir sings the first half of Rose in unison. Which is strange, because Bernard Rose had earlier harmonised the intonation for Christopher Robinson's predecessor, Sidney Campbell, and that version was rather different to the one sung by King's - and, IMO, a much better fit.
