Sadly missed
I was sorry to read of the death of Christopher Gunning (Farewell to…, June). As you rightly say, he was well known for his Poirot theme on television and he also composed a wonderful concerto for saxophone and orchestra called On Hungerford Bridge, which John Harle recorded some years ago. I have not been able to listen to it, as well as most of my CD collection, following a stroke in 2020, but this piece is one of the memorable ones which I do miss!
