"All things bright and beautiful": a perfect choice for today's choir solo as we honoured a lady who loved beauty and animals. A glorious Autumn day in the heart of chocolate box Kent.

Today we returned to this beautiful church to sing Franck: Panis angelicus, Parry: Crossing the bar, and Campion: Never weatherbeaten sail- for a gentleman who was truly larger than life and quite a character! We weren’t able to record today, so here is a snippet of our last visit.

Yesterday we sang for a lady whose life-long love of choral music showed in the choice of Handel's Hallelujah Chorus- our first time performing this as a quartet! We chose Parry's sublime and moving "Crossing the bar" to see the guests on their way at the end.

In this Proms season, it was our pleasure yesterday to perform the best of popular classics to honour a gentleman who loved The Last Night of the Proms: Ni**od (Lux aeterna); The Lord's Prayer from the "African Sanctus", Land of Hope and Glory (of course!) and this absolutely stunning arrangement of the Pearl Fishers Duet.

The sadness of a repeat booking: we sang for a couple's golden wedding anniversary in March and today were called upon to sing at the wife's funeral. As today's Gospel read, to everything there is a season. Sometimes the seasons come close together then one would expect.

It's been a busy week for our soloists. Franck's "Panis angelicus" is a perennial favourite at Catholic funerals, and was performed today at Z's funeral Mass in Purley.

Two years ago (almost to the day) we sang for S's husband. Today, it was her turn. As she was a devoted fan of Andrew Lloyd Webber, it was fitting that we sang his "Pie Jesu" at her funeral.

Today's request of 'Amazing Grace', for a proud Scot, gave us a chance to find some really splendid backing music. We already had a backing track for this, but wanted to find one that was truly personalised to S.

The incensing of the coffin is an important final part of the Catholic funeral Mass. One of our soloists learnt and sang this requested version, new to us, of 'May flights of angels', in Coulsdon today.

For the fallen. One of our singers performed a concert of Remembrance today, which included 'When the lights go on again' and 'We'll gather lilacs'.

We enjoyed the interesting period touches on today's accompanying instruments. Thanks to Richard Elwood for confident work on both!
