Im sure it was op25 no12 C minor the so called Ocean, I couldn’t find it on the radio listings, the ohrwurm is driving me mad…

[Shaun Ward aka Wardington 🐻 @ShaunWard78]

Quick fact check @PetrocTrelawny that wasn’t the Revolutionary Etude…? But I can’t now place which one it was 🫣

[Shaun Ward aka Wardington 🐻 @ShaunWard78]

Alleluia @BBCRadio3 a decent recording of Widor Toccata: respectable speed, French organ; hearing this on an English organ, played at break neck speed, seemingly weekly, drives me potty 🙏🙏 French organs and organ music deserves a little care #bravo

[Shaun Ward aka Wardington 🐻 @ShaunWard78]

Thanks for the outro 🙏🙏 much joy.

[Shaun Ward aka Wardington 🐻 @ShaunWard78]

Morning @PetrocTrelawny just tuned in, is that a recording from the last coronation? Missed the intro…

@RGCWbaritone @HfdCath_Choir @peterdyke49 has just sent me an identical pic! Wish I was there.

@PetrocTrelawny Not at all. The best of all is Ratlinghope which is pronounced Ratch-hope. It’s where the last recorded professional sin eater is buried https://t.co/VftFeuRA6z

@PetrocTrelawny wafers, as in biscuit is correct, it’s not far from our distillery

So many musicians have been inspired by that hall, wonderful memories myself: primary school massed singing concerts, my first Belshazzar’s Feast as a young bass in the chorus, being allowed to practice on the superb organ and many orchestral concerts; so grateful. May it thrive!

[Shaun Ward aka Wardington 🐻 @ShaunWard78]

@BBCRadio3 @PetrocTrelawny superb programming this week, regional pop up at it’s best, a great mix of history, cultural heritage and the exciting new hall @Bristol_Beacon classical music, living and breathing.

[Shaun Ward aka Wardington 🐻 @ShaunWard78]

@joannalayton @peterdyke49 And that’s only an acoustic one, try Hereford, or even better Bristol - huge scale.

[Shaun Ward aka Wardington 🐻 @ShaunWard78]

So many happy memories - thank you Bristol 🙏 and thank you @PetrocTrelawny for cheering us all up every morning come rain or shine.

[Shaun Ward aka Wardington 🐻 @ShaunWard78]
