<DIV><STRONG>I think that if I were required to spend the rest of my life on a
desert island, and to listen to or play the music of any one composer during all
that time, that composer would almost certainly be Bach.</STRONG> I really can't
think of any other music which is so all-encompassing, which moves me so deeply
and so consistently, and which, to use a rather imprecise word, is valuable
beyond all of its skill and brilliance for something more meaningful than that
-- its humanity. </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Hmm. If he had a choice of say 8 records (like in the
real Desert Island Disc show) he would also take Byrd & Gibbons, I think he
claimed somewhere that this was his favourite own recording. Isn't there an
aticle in the GG Reader about this subject ? Then again, Gg claimed lots of
things so we'll never know for sure..</FONT></DIV>
