The Fourth Sunday After the Epiphany Sunday, February 3, 2019 11 A.M Our vision A spiritually alive world Our mission Reimagining church with courage, joy and wonder The Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany Sunday, February 3, 2019 11 a.m. Holy Eucharist Welcome to Grace Cathedral Welcome to this sacred house of prayer for all people. Those who built this place and care for it love tradition and feel passionate about engaging with what is new. If you look closely you will find images of scientists, reformers, Jewish rabbis and Roman Catholic popes, political leaders, saints, and even an astronaut. We invite you to be part of this joyful community even if your visit is short. You might ask yourself two questions: “What do I need to receive? What do I have to give?” We would be delighted to hear about your explorations. May God bless you on your journey! – The Very Rev. Dr. Malcolm Clemens Young, Dean of Grace Cathedral • If you are new to Grace Cathedral, please introduce yourself and fill out a welcome card so we can be in touch with you. We’re glad you’re here! • Join us for coffee and conversation across the plaza in the Chapter House Library after the 8:30 a.m. service or in the Chapter House Dining Room after the 11 a.m. service. about today’s readings Jeremiah 1:4-10; Psalm 71:1-6; Corinthians 13:1-13; Luke 4:21-30 Reading texts can be found at the end of the service leaflet. Like a lot of prophets receiving their call, Jeremiah’s first response is stout denial. Surely God could choose someone better qualified, really there must be some terrible mistake. It’s easy to rattle off the reasons one isn’t suited to be a messenger – our limitations and our frailties are abundantly obvious to us. Yet God stubbornly looks past them to the gifts already given to us. It’s also easy to see that God’s gifts aren’t always gifts of comfort and plenty. Prophets generally have an awful time of it, and it’s perhaps a healthy degree of self-skepticism to doubt that what one has to say is always exactly what God meant one to say. Even Jesus, initially buoyed by the enthusiasm of his hometown synagogue, finds himself meeting outrage and frustration when he tells some home truths. Jesus goes out into the world again, none the worse for his experience and ready to continue serving those he encounters. In his letter to the Corinthians, Paul invites us to consider ourselves always accompanied, always strengthened by the power of love – without which, nothing we have to say will have any meaning to anyone. Is this the year we can look with faith and courage at the gifts God has given us, swallowing the doubt about our own fitness to employ them, and use the powers we’ve been granted without fear of consequences? God wants to hear us say “yes” at last. Carol James has been part of the cathedral community for over a decade. She has served as a co-mentor in the Education for Ministry (EfM) program. She currently leads the evening prayer providers in the Jail Ministry and is a cathedral staff member. highlights Today’s Forum Guest John Philip Newell 9:30 a.m. • Gresham Hall The internationally renown author and teacher discusses the inspiration and challenge of naturalist John Muir, through the lens of Celtic Spirituality.

  • NEWSLETTER WEDNESDAY 27TH JANUARY 2021 Welcome to Another Edition of Ramblings from the Conductor! I Hope the Newsletter Continues to Find You Well
    Winchester City Festival Choir NEWSLETTER WEDNESDAY 27TH JANUARY 2021 Welcome to another edition of ramblings from the conductor! I hope the newsletter continues to find you well. Composers of the week This week, I thought I’d write a bit about two composers for the price of one. The English composer and organist Samuel Wesley (1766 – 1837) was the son of the famous hymn writer Charles Wesley and the nephew of John Wesley. As a young child, Samuel Wesley was recognised as a child prodigy by the British musical establishment. He quickly mastered the violin, harpsichord and organ and by the age of eight, he was becoming known for his composing and improvisational skills. Samuel Wesley worked as a conductor as well as a music teacher and lecturer and seems to have been one of the pioneers of the organ recitals, as prior to his time, entertainment was not considered appropriate for a church building. Samuel Wesley was known by some as “The English Mozart” and also met and played the organ to Mendelssohn. About six months ago (yes it was that long ago), you might remember that I was sending out interview questions to fellow choral conductors for the newsletters. One of the interviewees in July was conductor and organist David Gostick, who is a very busy musician, even in lockdown! In 2017, David conducted Portsmouth Choral Union and Southern Pro Musica orchestra for the world premiere recording of “Confitebor tibi, Domine”, an extended setting of psalm 111 by Samuel Wesley. More information about the work and the CD is here: https://pcuchoir.org/product/portsmouth-choral-union-cd-2017/ and you can listen to one of the movements on the homepage of the Portsmouth Choral Union website.

  • From Oldham to Oxford: the Formative Years of Sir William Walton
    From Oldham to Oxford: The Formative Years of Sir William Walton Gary D. Cannon A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Geoffrey P. Boers, Chair Abraham Kaplan Giselle E. Wyers Program Authorized to Offer Degree: School of Music © Copyright 2014 Gary D. Cannon University of Washington Abstract From Oldham to Oxford: The Formative Years of Sir William Walton Gary D. Cannon Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Geoffrey Boers Choral Conducting, School of Music The formative years of William Walton (1902–1983) are rarely considered when studying the composer’s life and works. However, careful study of that period indicates many of the directions that the adult Walton would take. Industrial Lancashire was more musically active during the period of Walton’s youth (covering the years 1902 to 1912) than is generally considered. His time as a chorister and later undergraduate at Christ Church, Oxford (1912 to 1920), is replete with influential interactions with talented adults and fellow students.
