[Dailydrool] Basset in Musical Festival

[GGrf232 at aol.com]

This item appeared in the Daily Mail (London)  newspaper and I had to check 
to be sure it was not dated as April 1st: it wasn't  and it is all true.
The Swansea Festival of Music and the Arts has  commissioned a Canine Choir 
to perform at their next event. The choir has eight  members including Edward 
the Basset who, appropriately I suppose, has been given  the Bass part to 
'sing.' He is one of the stars of the show along with Eva an  Alsatian. Edward is 
said by the conductor to be particularly melodious, this  should surprise 
no-one. Apparently a CD has been made and will presumably be  available eventually.
The music A Song For Jack is dedicated to Swansea  Jack, a retriever who it 
is claimed saved 27 people from drowning in Swansea  Bay.
