A Tercentenary Tribute
Relayed from St. Giles's Cathedral,
Edinburgh
Lee Lecture by the Rev. MILLAR PATRICK , D.D. With examples sung by the combined choirs of St. Giles's Cathedral, and St. Andrew's (Drumsheugh) Church, Edinburgh, conducted by W. GREENHOUSE ALLT, Mus.Doc.
The Scottish Psalter of 1635, to which this tercentenary tribute is being paid, is the most notable musical production in Scottish church history. The music is of such general interest that Sir Richard Terry is publishing a reprint of the book, giving the tunes in their 1635 arrangements and adding modernised settings of his own.
Dr. Millar Patrick , who gives the Lee
Lecture, is well known as an authority on church music. He has come to the microphone on several occasions in connection with the fortnightly recitals of Scottish Psalm Tunes to supply notes and put the psalms in their correct historic setting.
