Triduum Countdown
To all, Hope everything goes well over the next three days. We've all put in an awful lot of work over the last couple of weeks – time to relax and enjoy (says he who will be a gibbering wreck from 7pm this evening!). From today to Sunday morning we'll sing 50 pieces of music – some people will ...

Re: Washing of Feet
"My soul is sad....will you not watch one hour with me" Couldn't you keep 'em all happy and have this as the final piece of music – a prelude into the "Watching". Fade out at the end. Perfect place for something sentimental and good words too... We're using Taizé's "Stay...

When I read the calm, balanced postings of TT and Contrabordun, I so regret my hot-headed input. But the pro-am thing is not a valid argument. People like Prof Bill Tamblyn do not become amateurs by opting to work in parish situations, by choosing to meet people where they are at and growing with th...

if composers turn out music that would simply not be acceptable at school, let alone the Royal Academy of Music. I so remember being refused a place on the composition course at music college. Reason? I write tunes. The guy in the year above me (who gained a First) produced a piece in which the per...

I'm simply highlighting the standards of much music composed for the church since 60's, We would all agree that been much dross. and I think my post makes that clear enough. No it doesn't – it implies that Inwod [sic], Farrell, Walker and Jones are incapable composers. look at real composers that...

....people that could never have made an honest living composing for any other institution have deluded the church into singing their weak and disposable music. ...Dean, Inwod, Foster, Jones, Haugen, Walker...I can't see these guys getting an A level let alone degree level with this quality of musi...

Are we any good at Easter?
This will be my third Easter in my present parish. Two years ago I was surprised to discover that the parish knew very few Easter hymns. I was working on psalms for the Vigil, descants and brass parts for the acclamations etc and assumed that, as it was my first year, I could just pull some of the g...

...so that those who didn't study Latin can have some comprehension of what they are singing Which kinda makes me wonder about the point of singing in Latin in the first place.
