  • The Magazine of the Guild of Church Musicians
    ISSN 2633-9528 Possibly the first ever advertisement for our predecessor, the Guild of Organists! Laudate The Magazine of the Guild of Church Musicians Laudate is typeset by Michael Walsh HonFGCM and printed by St Richard’s Press, No 103 January 2021 Leigh Road, Chichester, West Sussex PO19 8TU [email protected] 01243 782988 From the Editor of Laudate www. People beginning new jobs often refer to their predecessors as ‘hard acts to follow’. As your new editor, I can use that conventional expression with sincerity and conviction. Michael Walsh has done a wonderful job over many years, and I am delighted that he is continuing as typesetter and is assisting in other ways. The first issue of 2021 has the usual varied content (see the list below). Although reference to COVID-19 is inevitable, the primary message is one of renewal and hope. Finally, a personal word or two. I have served as organist and choir director for 50 years in a Hampshire parish church a mile from my home. Many years have also been spent writing about and editing early Tudor music, in teaching, and in examining. More recently Convivium Records have released two CDs of my sacred choral music. And work for the Guild, as Patrons: Rt Revd & Rt Hon Dr Richard Chartres, former Lord Bishop of London Chairman of the Academic Board, Fellowship Director and joint editor with Roger Wilkes of Guild Publications, Professor Dr Ian Tracey, Organist Titulaire of Liverpool Cathedral Dame Patricia Routledge, internationally renowned soprano & actress currently takes care of many hours.

  • Wells Cathedral Choir Rehearse Under the Direction of Their Organist and Master of the Choristers, Matthew Owens
    Vol. 7 No. 9 Wells Cathedral Choir rehearse under the direction of their Organist and Master of the Choristers, Matthew Owens. I am pleased to welcome you all to a new era in the ongoing life of the Federation of Cathedral Old Choristers Associations. We live in an ever changing world, and FCOCA is no exception. On a very sad note Michael Barry editor of this publication for many years died on 10 th March 2016 after a long illness. Michael had devoted much time and energy to revitalising the magazine for which we all owe him a great debt of gratitude. Circumstances have worked against us but after much discussion it was agreed at the Wakefield AGM this year that an electronic publication would be prepared which could be read on a computer or printed in the high street. The result is this publication which is as far as we could establish a complete set of reports sent from the various associations. If there are any omissions in this edition please accept my apologies. We have tried very hard! We have had a number of other changes on the committee recently. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ian Henderson and Richard Belton for their many years of service as Chairman and Secretary. If you would like to join the committee as Magazine Editor or Secretary you would be most wel- come. Alastair Pollard.

    LICHFIELD & DISTRICT ORGANISTS’ ASSOCIATION Founded 1926 LDOA President: Martyn Rawles, FRCO AUGUST 2014 NEWSLETTER RECENT LDOA VISITS pipework along with the Great soundboard, but everything else was provided new by Bishops, including the Wednesday 9th July 2014, The Church of the Holy magnificent ornate casework, designed by G.F.Bodley and Angels, Hoar Cross Canon Frederick Sutton. Bishops carried out subsequent modifications, and in 1935 Conacher Sheffield & Co made For our evening visit to The Church of the Holy Angels, significant changes, including a new Swell and the Hoar Cross, we were welcomed by Fr Graham Bott and introduction of pneumatic action. Although the changes Church Warden Peter Humpidge. were intended to improve the sound quality and projection, particularly into the nave, they added considerably to the congestion within the instrument, making access for tuning and fixing faults exceptionally challenging, effectively hastening the instrument’s demise. By the 1970s the instrument, had fallen into disrepair, and was replaced for services by an Allen electronic organ. Following the generous offer in 2009 of financial assistance to fund the organ's £200,000 restoration by the family of Jeanne Elizabeth Hoyes in her memory, a detailed appraisal of the options was carried out by Dr. William McVicker. He concluded that the only practical solution was to revert to the 1876 configuration. This meant stripping out the pneumatic action, decongesting the instrument’s interior to enable proper future maintenance, careful restoration of the historic Green material, and a return to Bishop & Son’s mechanical action, including procurement of an 1870’s style straight The Church of the Holy Angels, Hoar Cross pedalboard.

  • Composition Review Service
    COMPOSITION REVIEW SERVICE Information and fees ENRICHING THE PRESENT SECURING THE FUTURE SUSTAINING THE TRADITIONS What is the RSCM’s Composition Review Service? As a publisher, RSCM Press receives a large number of unsolicited compositions for consideration. Regrettably, we lack the means to comment upon the many manuscripts we receive, and that is why we have developed the Composition Review Service. For a modest fee, we will arrange for your composition to be assessed and reviewed by a leading composer or a high-profile musician active in the Church/Cathedral music world. They will complete a detailed analysis and make general comments on all aspects of the work (word setting, use of melody/harmony, accompaniment, liturgical usage, etc) all designed to be affirming and constructively critical. The best submissions received will then be sent to our publishing department for consideration. (see page 3). What can I submit for review? A piece or group of pieces totaling no more than five (5) minutes of music (excluding repeats). Fees for larger submissions can be quoted on request. How can I submit my work and how will it be returned? By post: • Please send EITHER, one legible copy, printed or hand-written on single-sided sheets of A4 (or US letter) size paper; OR electronic files on CD as a Sibelius file or PDF format only. • For UK entries, submissions must not total more than 60 sheets of A4, and must include a self- addressed envelope with stamps to the correct value for the weight of the returned submission (weighed as a ‘large letter’ according to current Royal Mail regulations).
