I had the great honour to be a friend of the international tenor Phillip Langridge who died after a very short illness a few months ago. Phillip Langridge was one of those wonderful artists who was never to scared or proud to try something different. He is fondly remembered for his roles in Benjemen Britten operas. Phillip was a gentleman, a true professional and loved his art to the last. I shall miss him personally, many others will miss his music and stage presence. His voice was unique and beautiful. We are so lucky that his voice remains recorded. I recommend a listen. Roger
