reminds me of Anglican churches and choirs that are no mre ...

@lionhearte1 : No. I remember the glorious days in Australia when we went to Mattins in the morning with a choir followed by at least two clergymen in procession and the most perfect of English and European music was performed with the Holy Bible read in the most perfect of English. We would go home to a roast dinner partially interrupted by listening to a radio program called ´Organists of Australia´. Then one would return to church for Choral Evensong before which the question would be as

[MusicPredominates]

@MusicPredominates : ked, ¨Did you listen to ´Organists of Australia´.¨ After evensong a most sumptious (and healthy) supper would be served.

[lionhearte1]

@MusicPredominates Wow, that sounds fantastic! We've never had anything quite like that!

[MusicPredominates]

@lionhearte1 : Now we have started chatting, oh lion-hearted one, this work was one of my late father´s favourites. There may be a record of him singing this as the soloist counter-tenor ! (a) ´Television´ killed this ; (b) general disobedience to the Lord´s Day killed this ; (c) WWII becoming a distant memory killed this ; (d) multiculturalism killed this ; and, finally the general profligacy of the Lord´s Day killed this. The memories remain ! You should start a Lord´s Day Observance Society

I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today, we sang a hymn as our Hymn of the Day set to a tune composed by Wesley. It was AURELIA. The hymn was O Living Bread from Heaven, written by Johann Rist and translated by Catherine Winkworth. It is #542 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship. Just thought I'd share.

Has always gave me insperation, and

peace of mind.

I Still MUST say you have some of the most clear singers!! It is inspiring. The organ also very much. lol.

Thank you for your kind comments and for viewing.

Absolutely beautiful, Wayne. The choir, and your soloists sound fantastic. Love the pace of your accompaniment, too. A lot of people don't realize how much talent it takes to direct from the organ bench - it is multi-tasking in its most difficult, and finest in your case. Very inspiring!

[choralanthem]

Agree with "organEd" - very nice.  Thanks for posting.
