It was a bit short though. I hit Record on my Freeview TV card (which also records Radio from Freeview) as it was being announced. I'm not sure if I caught the beginning and the software is now misbehaving. I will check later.

It seem like there ought to be a proverbial expression among(st) British musician that starts "He's a semiquaver short of a ...". Who was playing, anyway?

I was just curious whether it was (as was likely, given the size of the baryton world) someone I know at least slightly. It was. SignatureRoland Hutchinson Will play viola da gamba for food.

Thanks for this. I'd never heard of the instrument before. Must have been (probably still is if Wikipedia is owt to go by) hellishly difficult to tune never mind play. Wikipedia mentions several modern performers including John Hsu and one Roland Hutchinson. Is the latter the very same? I ask because of your sig. saying you'll play viola da gamba for food.

I had the great pleasure of meeting him on his recent visit to London, and of hearing a baryton duet played before an audience (of one - me) for the first time in 300 years or so.
