This is the graveyard at Birkenhead Priory and Saint Mary's Tower near the docks in Birkenhead (a few miles south of "Glorious" New Brighton).

As some of you know Mrs b and I have been members of a large choral society for nearly 35 years.I'm on the committee and one of my tasks is writing and producing the programme for each concert. I pride myself on having a braces' image on the cover and this picture is going to be our cover for our next concert, in April 2015, which is the stunning Verdi's Requiem.

For those of you who have never heard Verdi's Requiem I urge you to listen to THIS extract taken from a concert in Berlin. This is the last movement "Libra Me". It is simply stunning and I hope our version in April will be as good!.
