I’ve always liked the traditional English folk song ….and this one is a particular favourite which I’ve sung since childhood, first in school choir and then more recently with my current choir…it’s from the West Country…Somerset where they grow lots of apples and drink cider. The words were a poem written by William Barnes set to music by great English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams. - Linden Lea, sung by contralto Dame Janet Baker.

Takes me back to Nowton Court (my near Bury St Edmunds prep school) where we gathered for BBC school broadcasts, choir practice, country (folk) singing, recorder practice and geography lessons.
It was also where I saw a visiting boy playing blues alone on the piano. Less than 1/2 hour was enough to inspire me to copy and launch myself into a life time of composing and "playing by ear".
