Philip Stopford's beautiful "Do not be afraid" at the Cathedral tonight for the final time this Passiontide. I was a very young Fresher at Keble College Oxford when he was in his final year as Organ Scholar, already a prolific composer. It summoned and addressed the 18 yr old me.

At Llandaff Cathedral recording mostly contemporary Christmas music with the cathedral choir under Stephen Moore. Works by Karensa Briggs, Terence Charleston, Anna Lapwood, Gerald Near, Haflidi Hallgrimsson, Florence Price , Philip Stopford , John Rutter and others.

Correct. The BBC has totally lost the plot!
