Several people have emailed me privately (or cc'd me with posts to the list) about my blooper concerning "Sir Malcolm Gossip". Some messages were delivered with good natured wit, some with patient understanding, and some with unconcealed churlishness, but all were spot on: my message concerned Sir William Walton. Thanks to all who pointed out the error, and apologies to any confusion I may have caused. And to think, when writing the post, I was concerned that I had the composer's wife's name wrong! Larry
