from the Parish Church, Chipping Norton, Oxon.
Midway between Oxford and Stratford-upon-Avon lies the beautiful Cotswold town of Chipping Norton. The church, which owes much to the support of the 16th - century wool merchants, stands in a little hollow below the town.

Hymns introduced by William Purcell include:
Angel-voices ever singing (Tune, Angel-voices); The Church's one foundation (Aurelia); Christ is our corner-stone (Harewood); For the beauty of the earth (Dix); God, whose city's sure foundation (Westminster Abbey); King of glory, King of peace (Harvey); Thou didst leave thy throne (Margaret); Glory to thee, my God, this night (Canon); O worship the King (Hanover); Crown him with many crowns (Diademata); O praise ye the Lord! (Laudate Dominum)
