I know the Welsh are renowned for their love of music so this particularly acknowledges our Welsh colleagues on this forum. I've just been listening again to a work by the modern Welsh composer, Geraint Lewis, which was played to accompany the candle procession at the 7/7 Memorial Service at St. Paul's cathedral yesterday.

It's titled "The Souls of the Righteous" and is a truly beautiful piece of music. If you missed it, do listen here, even if it's not your normal taste in music.

It felt particularly relevant to me as one of my former work colleagues was killed in the bombings on that awful day.
