Lines: 8 I, too, enjoy the Bminor more than the St Matt or St Luke - it contains such a range of light and shade. After that you might like to take a listen to Haydn's Nelson mass (3rd) which I very much enjoyed perfoming at one time, and still enjoy listening to it, too. Vivaldi's gloria is pretty much up tempo, too. marcus hand (pyuxt!marcus)
