Music for parish choirs this week. Don’t forget that you can hear more beautiful sacred
and organ music on Peaceful Reflections from 10 until midnight on Sunday evenings.
The format which I created and used for the eight years I was host of Peaceful Reflections
is back. It’s a mix of instrumental and choral music designed for Sunday evening listening.
Hope you like it.
Thanks for your support. And happy Fathers’ Day!
