You were too inundated with other well-wishers to shake your hand afterwards, but I wanted to extend my congratulations on the European premiere of The Chelsea Carol. I am fortunate enough to be on a one year visiting student fellowship at Sidney Sussex, and the college choir combined with your repertoire has been one of the highlights of my year in England.

I found it very sombre and moving as well as beautifully sung. I would like to know where I could find the words. I was in Sydney Sussex chapel this evening especially to listen to the Chelsea Carol.
