I am delighted to have this, thank you! When I saw it on classical_share I thought “Oh, interesting. I don’t know this work and should get 5/4 to tell me something about it. Then I came here and voilà! I am looking forward to hearing this later this evening (I am about to go to a piano recital b y Michael Roll and then a symphony concert tonight (Tschaikovsky4 and Stravinsky Violin Concerto).By the way, Robert Tear was a friend of mine(and vocal coach) in the ’70’s.
Hi, i hope you like the Berlioz; it’ll be clear how much i love the work. i heard Robert Tear some time last year (a broadcast on TV); not sure how long ago the performance was, but his voice didn’t appear to have aged very well. But here, in the Sanctus, he’s marvellous!
I am surprised he is still singing! He is in his, oh, mid-sixties, perhaps nearer 70. I always liked his voice but while I shall always be grateful for his help I have to say that I always thought he was rather too full of the joys of being Robert Tear.

Sorry to read about the headache.
