Big news from 400 years ago! Turns out the 17th-century English musician and composer Richard Dering secretly converted to Catholicism and worked at the Venerable English College in Rome. Proud to publish the research I’ve done to unearth all of this with Maurice Whitehead.

Spent most of the last day of 2024 making editions for @londiniumchoir.bsky.social... many joyful moments of old spelling, but I think my favourite discovery of the day was how Byrd spells, er, Byrd...

I miss Valentina & her kiosk. I miss her positivity & warm-heartedness. Valentina has been undergoing cancer treatment. To cheer her up I turned the Valentina’s Kiosk theme into a song & the legendary BBC Singers have recorded it for her. Here is Valentina’s Song. Conducted by David Hill.
