| Abstract | This book informs choirmasters concerning matters which often confuse and trouble them when going from one Episcopal church position to another, or when securing a post as choirmaster in an Episcopal church for the first time. There are various "Anglican ways" of conducting services which require various types of music, and a well-prepared choirmaster must understand them. This manual includes rewritten and revised chapters from a previously published booklet entitled "A Choirmaster's Notebook" together with much new material relating to Anglican liturgical music and kindred subjects. No musical examples are given in the text but references are made to passages in the Kyrial of Winfred Douglas and the Choral Service of the Joint Commission. |
