I am sad. I just discovered, several months late, that Peter Skellern died in February this year.

He was a gentle delight. I had the pleasure of seeing him perform live with Richard Stilgoe—a very funny combination. I also attended a one-day choral singing course he ran in Hemel, and discovered that he wrote some rather lovely choral music.
