A tremendous work. Really great. In a different class from the St John.
The orchestra had many of the soloists from the week's concerts in it being
made up specially for the event. The singing was marvellous. A great night.
Now I have to wait three weeks for the Mozartfest.
I will go and look for the Canadian music on Listen Again now. Tonight was
