My cousin sent me a link to this beautiful surprise, which I pass on in the interest of spreading a little happiness (it certainly worked on me). I wonder if Frank Wilson was there when the music started...
Wonderful stuff and such terrific PR that one wonders why it doesn't happen more often.
It must have been an interesting experience to have been in amongst them. My uncle used to be a professional opera singer and standing next him whilst he was at maximum volume could make your teeth hum.
Nige, who, like Mr Kenneth Horne, prefers to remain anonymous, was also a founder blogger of The Dabbler and a co-blogger on the Bryan Appleyard Thought Experiments blog. He is the sole blogger on this one, and his principal aim is to share various of life's pleasures. These tend to relate to books, art, poems, butterflies, birds, churches, music, walking, weather, drink, etc, with occasional references to the passing scene. His book, The Mother of Beauty: On the Golden Age of English Church Monuments, and Other Matters of Life and Death, is available on Amazon or direct from the author.
