The first performance was at her memorial service. This performance, however was part of The memorial service in St Martin in The Fields, for Ruth Rudge, who was a very distinguished and lovely lady, and also my first boss. The ladies of The Occasional Choir, whose beginnings were as The Madrigal Choir at West Heath, which I co-founded, all those years ago, are The singers, including one of The six that took part in The very first performance. I am conducting, and Penny Walker, who now directs The Choir is accompanying. Unfortunately less than half The singers are visible in The video.  less

In The fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under The bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but The Horror of The shade, and yet The menace of The years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait The gate, How charged with punishments The scroll, I am The master of my fate, I am The captain of my soul.  less
