Palm Sunday today so it has to be the Matthew Passion (call me old fashioned, I can take it). Despite spending most of today freezing at the side of a football pitch I managed to squeeze in two versions in their entirety, result!
First John Butt and the Dunedin Consort’s scintillating version on Linn (great SQ)…
