 Crouch End Festival Chorus - News & Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-14)
COMMISSIONED by the Crouch End Festival Chorus to write a choral work for performance this year, David Bedford turned to the text of Arthur C. Clarke's 1955 novel The City and the Stars as the basis of his choral setting.
Despite its obscurity, Clarke's text is not exactly poetic either, though Bedford does well to disguise the fact in generally idiomatic word-setting that gives the chorus plenty to get its teeth into.
High-lying soprano lines in the semi-chorus, coloratura for the soprano solo and cruel tessitura for tenor soloist impersonating the roasted swan were all negotiated successfully (Lynda Russell and Huw Rhys-Evans the fine soloists).

But in 2003, Bedford took the unusual step of allowing male pacers to run in the all-women's race, while the elite men ran in a different start some 45 minutes later.
Whether the pacers who ran with Radcliffe, Samson Loywapet and Christopher Kandie of Kenya, had any influence on her sparkling 2:15:25 finish time is debatable.
However, Bedford decided to return to only allowing female pacemakers the following year (Radcliffe didn't run), and fielded only women's pacemakers in 2005.
