Anna C Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Oh, how sad! What a great loss to the music world and of course to King’s College. May Sir Stephen rest in peace, surrounded by beautiful music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Macmillan Posted November 25, 2019 Author Share Posted November 25, 2019 I have just seen a Tweet from Sir Stephen's wife, saying that she had played this anthem to him on the day he died and that "it felt right in every respect for it to be the final piece of music he heard." Would that we might all pass in peace in such a manner. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
