Good stuff Dave,

For fun and exercise I've been wading thru the Richard Rodgers tunes on the trellis.  Always a joy.

To my ear he was one of the best if not the best lyrical composer of his day.   Add to this his fabulous 'Victory At Sea' scores and he may yet go down as the least heralded great composer of the last century.

Chas..
