  • If the Hat Fits, Wear It!
    If the hat fits, wear it! By Canon Jim Foley Before I put pen to paper let me declare my interests. My grandfather, Michael Foley, was a silk hatter in one of the many small artisan businesses in Claythorn Street that were so characteristic of the Calton district of Glasgow in late Victorian times. Hence my genetic interest in hats of any kind, from top hats that kept you at a safe distance, to fascinators that would knock your eye out if you got too close. There are hats and hats. Beaver: more of a hat than an animal As students for the priesthood in Rome the wearing of a ‘beaver’ was an obligatory part of clerical dress. Later, as young priests we were required, by decree of the Glasgow Synod, to wear a hat when out and about our parishes. But then, so did most respectable citizens. A hat could alert you to the social standing of a citizen at a distance of a hundred yards. The earliest ‘top’ hats, known colloquially as ‘lum’ hats, signalled the approach of a doctor, a priest or an undertaker, often in that order. With the invention of the combustion engine and the tram, lum hats had to be shortened, unless the wearer could be persuaded to sit in the upper deck exposed to the elements with the risk of losing the hat all together. I understand that the process of shortening these hats by a few inches led to a brief revival of the style and of the Foley family fortunes, but not for long.

  • REACHING out a Celebration of the Work of the Choir Schools’ Association
    REACHING OUT A celebration of the work of the Choir Schools’ Association The Choir Schools’ Association represents 46 schools attached to cathedrals, churches and college chapels educating some 25,000 children. A further 13 cathedral foundations, who draw their choristers from local schools, hold associate membership. In total CSA members look after nearly 1700 boy and girl choristers. Some schools cater for children up to 13. Others are junior schools attached to senior schools through to 18. Many are Church of England but the Roman Catholic, Scottish and Welsh churches are all represented. Most choir schools are independent but five of the country’s finest maintained schools are CSA members. Being a chorister is a huge commitment for children and parents alike. In exchange for their singing they receive an excellent musical training and first-class academic and all-round education. They acquire self- discipline and a passion for music which stay with them for the rest of their lives.

  • Location of Choir and Musical Instruments, January 2012
    ARCHDIOCESE OF PHILADELPHIA Office for Liturgical Music 222 North Seventeenth Street ! Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103-1299 215-587-3696 www.ArchPhilaMusic.org www.CathedralPhilaConcerts.org LOCATION OF CHOIR AND MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS COMMENTARY OFFICE FOR WORSHIP ARCHDIOCESE OF PHILADELPHIA Sacrosanctum Concilium, the document of the Second Vatican Council on the Sacred Liturgy, speaks clearly of the importance of music in the liturgy and, while urging that “choirs … be diligently promoted,” insists that “religious singing by the people … be skillfully fostered.” Implicit is the recognition of the special service and gift given to the people of God by skilled ministers of music who are, at the same time, members of the community at prayer. Subsequent Church documents and statements by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops support, develop, and expand upon Sacrosanctum Concilium regarding music ministers. In particular, they speak of the proper location of the choir, cantor, and other musicians in the church building itself -- as both musicians and members of the assembly. The Office for Worship of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, based upon the norms expressed in liturgical documents regarding the placement of musicians, offers the following guidelines to pastors, musicians, and worship committees. Musicians (choir, cantor, instrumentalists), recognized and appreciated for the special gift they bring to the celebration of the Sacred Liturgy, must be located in the church in such a way that they are also clearly perceived to be members of the worshipping assembly. While lending their special training and skill, they must also be servants of the Sacred Liturgy and members of the community at prayer.

  • Albs, Advent, and White Supremacy; Or, Why the Worship Leaders Have Not Been Wearing Those Long White Robes Kathleen O’Keefe Reed October 16, 2019
    Albs, Advent, and White Supremacy; or, Why the worship leaders have not been wearing those long white robes Kathleen O’Keefe Reed October 16, 2019 At the beginning of Advent, 2016, I wrote the following to explain why I and other worship leaders were not wearing albs. That practice continues, with the exception of “high holy days,” like Christmas and Easter. Here’s what I said back then: Those robes, called albs derived from tunica alba meaning “white tunic,” were the standard business suit of professional Roman men in the early centuries of the Common Era. The alb did not become the go-to Christian priestly garb until the beginning of the 5th Century. “For example, in a transitional stage, Jerome, (341-420), distinguishes between everyday clothing and a special ‘suit of clean clothes for wear in church…”” writes J.G. Davies in A Dictionary of Liturgy and Worship, p. 367, Macmillan,1972. Davies goes on to say that “all ranks of clergy wore the plain alb until the eleventh century.” After that, albs were by turns, more or less plain. Davies, writing in the 1970’s, concludes that up to present day the alb “is to be thought of as the archetypal ‘white robe’ of Christianity.’” Just as Davies’ tome went to print in 1972, a liturgical renewal in the American Lutheran church was gearing up. The centrality of the baptismal font as lifelong source of identity rather than ticket to heaven got heightened. Weekly Eucharist became the norm. The new green Lutheran Book of Worship reflected these renewed priorities, so the church shopped its closet for new-old symbolism.
