Am currently too cross and depressed about the state of the C of E (see recent reports in the Guardian) to want to talk about it.

So have an exciting new piece of choral music instead:

I feel that the opening versicles lack a bit of punch, but do keep listening; the Lord's Prayer in particular is sublime.

Oh dear. It took us until about the Our Father to figure out why there were all these James Bondses - Andrew knows the James Bond themes but isn't good at picking them out of a mass, and I can pick tunes out of plainchant, but don't know the tunes, other than Goldfinger...

Apparently there is a Savoy Mass out there somewhere - an entire mass constructed of Gilbert & Sullivan tunes. Sadly, I can't find evidence of this on YouTube. I shall have to ask Tenor J for the composer's name.
