Jonathan gave a talk—’Howells’ Paradise’—on July 30th at the Three Choirs Festival in Hereford. Many thanks to all who came (over a hundred!), and if you didn’t manage to catch it, a recording has been shared by the Herbert Howells Society. It covers the history of Herbert Howells’ masterpiece, Hymnus Paradisi, and situates it within a broader context of English music that explores paradise and related themes during the period.
