PS - I'm currently looking into the life & times of one my favourite composers, William Lawes whose life was brought to an end at the age of 43 when, as a Cavalier, he was casually shot by a Parliamentarian during the battle of Rowton Heath near Chester on September 24th 1645.

That's my listening for this coming Thursday sorted then - two masters of Quintessential Englishness who share the same passing-day.
