Keith Chegwin and Harrison Birtwistle

[dormouse1953]

The recent death of Keith Chegwin reminded me that I have a memory of
seeing a performance of Birtwistle's Down by the Greenwood Side on
Channel 4 in the eighties. It was a performance recorded many years
earlier and I was surprised and amused to see Chegwin's name in the cast
list.

I did wonder if I might have imagined this, but I just googled
"birtwistle chegwin" and found this:
