I would have been fourteen and became a Christian that year at Mission England. Church choral music interests me, especially as I have a musical background (playing violin and viola, singing alto in my church choir). I also have perfect pitch, so would notice any sharp or flat singing!
I enjoyed this - just as I enjoyed working with Malcolm Archer at Oxford in the 1970s. In my experience, he is an excellent choir director.
Malcolm Archer has a soprano range of his own. 🌲

Forgot to say that he was a very good countertenor
Most interesting.
Oh oh oh! 26:42, Malcolm, that's too FAST! But lovely nonetheless!
.".... to a Magnificat by Benjamin Britten". Err,,,, he never set the evening canticles!
Most impressive a choral rendition of prayer.
That last piece was from whom? The narrator mentions Britten...
I was a non-singing pupil ar BCS 1984-1992. And I am 99% sure I recognise the boy at 3:56 which is pretty surreal all these years later.
20:10
It seems Mr Archer wasn't very successful in conveying an appreciation of Tudor music!
'Abolish Tudor music' 😂😂😂
Abolish Tudor music 🤣😂
