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!
