The Canberra International Music Festival 2014, OR if someone else from Artsound records it, which is likely

I will try to get a recorded file of Con Moto to you, surrounded by the rest of the concert, of course.

The Elegy is very beautiful.

I'm ambivalent about Brooke as a poet, more below.

I do not feel WWI was 'the suicide of the West,' or that it was futile. German Militarism was eventually defeated. It took two goes, and peace is still a ways off.

American soldiers first fought the German Army during the Battle of Hamel. Fourteen were decorated.

THE WWI poem for me is "Dulce et Decorum est Pro Patria Mori" by Wilfred Owen. My late FIL was an authority on our own WWI poets and was well grounded in all the English language WWI literature.
