Jonathan Rees-Williams, 55, was convicted in June at Reading Crown Court of a string of assaults, including some carried out in churches.

Jurors heard Rees-Williams, of Bristol, preyed on children from the mid-1970s.

None of the assaults took place during his time at Windsor Castle, where he quit as organist and master of the choir at St George's Chapel in 2002.

His voice quavered as the jailer threw away the keys, which struck a chord with the police after playing with several minors.

So a bit of manual playing resulted in a great swell !
