Originally posted by subcontrabass View PostI met up with him in 1964, when we had a chat over dinner in the refectory at University College, Durham, during the Durham Twentieth-Century Music Festival and Summer School. I was there as a student on the Summer School. He was there as a member of the John Aldiss Choir, who were giving that evening's concert. I introduced myself to him as a current pupil at the school which he had attended. He also knew my brother, as they had shared the tenor solo part in a performance of Haydn's Creation at our school a couple of years previously. He told me that he had worked as a freelance violinist while his voice developed and the singing engagements increased to provide a living.
My first ever notes heard in an opera house were sung by PL - the Prologue to Turn of the Screw at the Coliseum
Looking forward to cloughie's ?début puzzle ..."...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
