A reading, a hymn and reflection. Stereo
"There are in England some 13,000 churches. Together they represent an enormous body of musical energy and enthusiasm." So wrote Sydney Nicholson, then organist of Westminster Abbey. He gave up the most important cathedral appointment in England to found his School of English Church Music, dedicated to raising musical standards in churches. In this its Diamond Jubilee Year the Royal School of Church Music, as it is now known, is confronted by a different climate. Standards have never been higher but the Church, as it has faced the cultural changes of the 60s and 70s, has tried to take on board the most virulent aspect of that culture, it's music. How should this markedly traditional institution respond?
