“Es ist ein Ros entsprungen,
aus einer Wurzel zart,
wie uns die Alten sungen,
von Jesse kam die Art.
Und hat ein Blümlein bracht
mitten im kalten Winter,
wohl zu der halben Nacht.”

For all interested in England’s liturgical history - and the fascinating hangover of Latin post-Reformation, I couldn’t recommend this more: cambridge.org/core/journals/…

If you like unfamiliar English 16thC choral music, give this a try. It’s Rasar(Rasor)’s only surviving work in a new recording under the super direction of @TobyCharlesWard

Henry VIII on Tour is out now, @delphianrecords! 🥳
Hear the sound of Henry on tour: at prayer, play and in private. Harp, lute, organ (including the revolting Regal) - and of course choral works - mixing the sounds of Henry’s ‘riding chapel’ with the ‘local choir’ he visited.

Breakfast is live @BBCRadio3. Today a new setting of the Coventry Carol w/@BBCSingers, Dickensian Muppets, Joseph Calleja sings Donizetti, the six year old Richard Strauss writes a seasonal lullaby and a sculpture by Richmond Barthé inspires William Grant Still.
This is just fabulous. Warlock’s epic pastiche of Renaissance dances - the Capriol Suite - as a Mass setting. Just Brilliant. Definitely doing this with @MusicStJohnsW14 😍

A privilege to host the #charityfundraising #CarolService for @LadyGardenFnd last night. Superb music from our choral scholars and @TobyCharlesWard
Thank you to all who came

Any Bishop who is prepared to endorse this skull-measuring nonsense should at least have the decency to visit their congregations and tell them they hate them to their faces.
And types BCD favour CofE sludge coffee, whereas type A serve fizz or wine.
Honestly, the ‘report’ from the CofE shows we really are the titanic. The band (us lay ministers and true priests) play on but the ship is holed horrifically below the waterline. Rome’s call gets louder.

The singing was truly other worldly. Those not able to be with us have missed something very special. Thank you to all our singers and especially @TobyCharlesWard who brought the liturgy to life. Music like this doesn’t happen often or by accident.
This Sunday: Pierre de la Rue (1452-1518) his exquisite Requiem - sung by the Choir of St John’s, Holland Park @MusicStJohnsW14.
Written 1507 upon the death of Philip the Handsome, Haps/Burgs archduke, and also sung for the death of his father the emperor, Max., in 1519.
All welcome to join us for our annual #requiem for #allsouls
Preacher: The Rev’d Dr Charles Clapham of St Peter’s Hammersmith

The River Cam in autumn's grace
Reflects the sky in soft embrace
The willows bow with quiet cheer
As golden leaves fall far and near
