Talk:Choir of King's College, Cambridge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Former Members
In one of the service lists last year, there was an evensong "Tomkins obit". King's only do obits for their own members, so I presume that, like Gibbons, Tomkins had a connection. However, I can't find any evidence in Grove to support this. I've added him anyway, as I should imagine it's true, but if anyone connected more closely to the Chapel could confirm that it's true, I'd be grateful! Stefan 00:31, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
- Thomas Tomkins had no connection with King's College. His name does not occur in the Commons books, which records choristers receiving their weekly "commons", nor in the Mundum (accounts) books. I think that "King's only do obits for their own members" is not entirely true. I don't recall there being a policy about this, as such, in my time there, almost 40 years ago.Soixante 18:10, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Wrong Link
This is probably the wrong place in which to post this, but I hope it will be forgivable. The link at the bottom of the page to Andrew Kennedy links to an American politician by the same name. The actual Tenor Andrew Kennedy appears not to have a Wikipedia page at all. Instead of appearing to remove a link, it seemed better to post the problem here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.232.242.127 (talk) 14:12, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
