Guest Patrick Coleman Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 It's on R4 listen again, that's how I heard it Sunday afternoon. Beieve me, the cathedral Compton is NOT impressive! I've had to play it many times.... Peter I played the Compton several times about 20 years ago - for what it was, it did a good job. Are there any plans to replace it (could St Peter's stand the competition?!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt if they could afford it as the cathedral does not attract a large congregation, being as you will know in awholly non-residential area. If they got some kind of large donation or a long-term fund raising scheme going they might be in with a chance. Marx and Spencer were once very keen to acquire the property and would have given St David's enough money to build a new cathedral and get a new organ but it seems that the cathedral is staying put for the time being. St Peter's can stand anything! Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
