David Willcocks is fortunately still with us and this collection of interviews with the famous organist, conductor and choirmaster is an informative and indeed illuminating survey of a long life. We learn something of his early life in Cornwall, as a chorister at Westminster Abbey, scholar at Clifton College and finally student at King's College, Cambridge. The details of his war experience are particularly interesting - they led to his award of the Military Cross. Throughout there is a total absence of self importance, very much in keeping with the personlity of this essentially modest man. A much recommended read - I found it all quite fascinating.
