Was there in person. Basically my imoression was the whole thing sounded better in the radio, or was this year service was shaky? The treble solo started nicely but then his voice started dwindling. Sometimes the choir and the organ sounded like they're chasing each other. Some of the lessons readers were barely audible. Was not that impressed of this year's performance.

Merry Christmas and thank you very much from the Netherlands.

Not knowing I might find here, I laid out several wires across my study and shifted around the furniture only to record the broadcast in stereo on the World Service via satellite …

Thanks very much for posting, and indeed for your interesting blog throughout the year. Merry Christmas!

J.
