The treble solo For I will consider my cat Jeoffry and the alto solo
For the Mouse is a creature of great personal valour, could probably be
excerpted from the score, but they should be done with organ as much of
their charm depends on the registration. The tenor solo is about
flowers and the bass solos are integral to the score.
Hope this answers your question, and I hope this post gets through, as
my last two haven't!
