Myfanwy Piper

I note a recent piece by Frances Spalding on Myfanwy Piper in the Guardian, in advance of her forthcoming OUP book on the two Pipers. More information on Spalding may be found on her pages at Newcastle University, including further references on Piper and Coventry Cathedral.

Antonio Pacitti

I note obituaries of the sculptor Antonio Pacitti in the Times and the Church Times. He is of note here for a number of religious works, including a Madonna and Child for the new church of St Thomas More in Patcham, East Sussex, in 1964. Helpful lists of his works and exhibitions are available at churchart.co.uk

Leonie Cohn

I note another obituary, this time of the radio producer Leonie Cohn, who worked on numerous programmes on the arts for the Third Programme in the Fifties and Sixties.

Noel Vincent

I note a recent obituary of Canon Noel Vincent: he was of most interest for the purposes of this blog in his work as producer of Songs of Praise, from the mid 1970s until his retirement.
