The theme for this week’s show is thanksgiving. Much thanks to James
Lazenby for lending me a recording of the Howells work. I had not realized
that Dr. Paul Callaway had commissioned an anthem from Herbert Howells for
the Episcopal Cathedral in our nation’s capital.
I hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Don’t forget that there’s more sacred choral music on Sean Burton’s program Sunday in Siouxland.
