In 1990 John founded the Meljon Singers with Melanie Spark. Many of us who are still singing with the group remember him with great affection. Music-making with Meljon has given us all such joy over the years. I remember how my eyes might meet John's over a particularly beautiful passage in the music, and what a pleasure it was to share such moments. John will of course be sadly missed but Meljon is part of his continuing legacy . Mandy Bentley (former chairman of the Meljon Singers)
