You're very welcome.

Now then, I've just finished listening to the 'Amen' from Handel's Messiah. That's magic too!

Caught up with this earlier this afternoon. The piece is performed a little slower than I prefer, but it's still beautiful music. Thank you!

Aha! You're slowly educating me Contused🙂 I have more of a varied taste in music now than when I was younger. Of course I'll always love the Blues; Country ~ and a mix of this and that from the 60's & 70's ~ and a little bit of Scot Joplin rag; boogie woogie....oh and swing and .........I could go on forever!!! Not keen on opera tho.

Until I returned to this country in 1956 to go to boarding school when I was 11, I grew up listening to my father's classical music on gramophone and the BBC's long wave broadcasts of mostly popular mainstream music. In the few months before I returned we were horrified to read of the arrival of rock and roll through Bill Haley and his Comets, and others, teddy boys fighting in the streets, people jiving in the aisles in cinemas and so on. Arriving at school, I soon was listening to what was 'pop' music at the time and singing in the school choir. I joined a Jazz Appreciation Society and my tastes in music broadened rapidly. I even like some opera sung by the greats. Hey-ho!
