    A Peal for New Year's Day

    Did anyone listen to this?

    Howard Skempton's piece for church bells, Five Rings Triples.


    If so, were you disappointed that it was cut four leads before the end?

    I certainly did listen. A stirring experience.

    It sort of faded out as I recall which came as a surprise and a disappointment.

      I did, and I was. I had intended to drive over to Kingston for the event, but the rotten weather put me off. Still, such pathetic actions as that truncation are what we have come to expect under the Wright regime. Apparently the ring overran by a minute or two. See Reply #67, here.

        Mrs LMP, a bell ringer, was even more disgusted than I was!
        I keep hitting the Escape key, but I'm still here!
