The Gymnopedie No 1 is one of my all time favourite classical pieces. More of the same please.
On a different note: I clicked onto “add to my basket” and it didn’t seem to register (several attempts). When I thereafter attempted “apply” (to see if that would expedite the purchase, )it progressed. I am delighted to have purchased from you several times before and also appreciate the occasional ‘freebie’. Was there perhaps a glitch with the site today or should I have been doing something else that perhaps was omitted in the ordering process? Keep up the great work by the way. I am sure your ‘follower’s from the Mike Herberts day will appreciate your efforts too.
