I've always had a soft spot for Tennyson's poem, The Splendour Falls on Castle Walls, and in fact am quite hooked on the 2 last lines of the first stanza...Blow bugle...But it's been about 65 years before I found out thatBenjamin Britten had used the poem for a song - and Dennis Brain, the famous Aussie horn player,featured in the recording. Well small things....
