No one is quicker to disregard and deprecate any aspect of the Anglican heritage than an Anglican clergyman, at least here in Canada. We are told it is the sacrifice one has to make to the work of evangelism. Meanwhile congregations shrink at record rates.

My favourite chant to Psalm 150. We used this for special occasions when I was a choirboy... not just the last evening of the month.

I would just like to say that my parish has an excellent choral tradition. We have g a sung choral Eucharist and choral Evensong every Sunday, we also make full use of Anglican Chant.
We are always on the look out for new trebles and men who have reasonable sight reading abilities (CRB check required), so if you live near Chingford in North-East London, you are welcome to come along to Ss. Peter & Paul, The Green near Station Road.

@kapariz44 : Your young day ? There was once dis-establishment. And, a poem or hymn was written about it. The poem appears on the internet somewhere.

@kapariz44 : If you are in the U.K., why not make representations to Richard London ... Richard Chartres, Bishop of London. David.

It's regrettable, in my opinion, that most Anglican churches don't make much use of these chants these days as they were/are one of the most characteristic aspects of the services.
I remember in my young day in Ireland, there'd be the set pieces after each lesson: Te Deum/Jubilate Deo in the morning; Magnificat/Nunc Dimittis in the evening, and then one or two of the psalms proper for the day - about 5 per day throughout the month. Now it's all gone to the wall - how dreary.
