SERVICES & MUSIC April S ERVICES & M USIC April 2 bristol-cathedral.co.uk Dean of Bristol The Very Revd Dr David Hoyle Canon Precentor The Revd Canon Nicola Stanley Master of the Choristers and Organist Mark Lee For more information, please contact the Music Administrator Tim Popple [email protected] 0117 926 4879 3 bristol-cathedral.co.uk Welcome hrist is Risen! He is Risen indeed, Alleluia! CAt last the sombre weeks of Lent, which began this year on 14 February, are finally over and we can celebrate the joy of Our Lord’s Resurrection. Once again the choir are singing alleluias, the purple cloths of Passiontide which have covered all our symbols and statues have been removed and the Cathedral is full of flowers and light. The message of Easter is that Christ burst from the tomb, death could not contain him: through Christ’s death on the Cross we are freed from the burden of sin and through his Resurrection we are promised a share in his eternal life. Never again need we be separated from the love of God our Father – we are an Easter people, no wonder we rejoice! Easter is a time for new beginnings and we congratulate the newly baptised and confirmed, praying too for all those who are preparing for marriage or baptism over the coming weeks. This winter seems to have been particularly long and cold - we’re all waiting for the warmer weather - and I pray that the new life and spiritual growth of Easter will soon be reflected in new life and growth in our gardens and the countryside. Happy Easter! The Revd Canon Nicola Stanley Canon Precentor 4 bristol-cathedral.co.uk About the Cathedral The original foundation on this site was an abbey established in 1148 by Robert Fitzhardinge of Berkeley Castle. It was built just outside the original walls of Bristol on high ground overlooking the river. The new monastery was dedicated to St Augustine. Initially all the abbey buildings were in Norman style (characterized by massive pillars and round arches) but between the 13th and early 16th centuries a sequence of rebuilding projects transformed the church into a Gothic one, showing the successive developments of Gothic style. The last section due to be rebuilt was the nave. However, just after the old nave had been demolished, and before much progress had been made with the rebuilding, Henry VIII dissolved the country’s monasteries and confiscated their assets. The new nave was therefore never built, and the work that had already been done was dismantled to provide stone for other projects in the area. On 9 December 1539 the last Abbot of Bristol handed over the abbey to the King’s Commissioners. Unlike many other cities, it was not originally intended that there should be a diocese of Bristol, and so its abbey was not due to become a cathedral. However, when it was discovered that St Peter’s Abbey in the nearby rival port of Gloucester was to be made a cathedral, Bristol’s citizens petitioned for equal treatment and in 1542 the disused abbey church was designated the Cathedral of the Holy and Undivided Trinity, Bristol. In 1877 the rebuilding of the nave was finally completed, 350 years after the original, Norman nave, had been demolished. 5 bristol-cathedral.co.uk Information Anthems Selected translations of anthems which are not sung in English are available from page 17. Bible Translation The Cathedral uses the NRSV Anglicised Edition translation of the bible for all services except BCP Holy Communion on Sundays. Reading selections are taken from the Common Worship Lectionary, with Evensong readings taken from the Pillar Lectionary. Choir Unless otherwise specified, all choral services are sung by the Cathedral Choir. On Mondays the boy choristers sing with the lay clerks and choral scholars. On Tuesdays the girl choristers sing with the lay clerks. Weekend services alternate between boy choristers and girl choristers.

  • The Plight of Anglican Church Music in the Western Cape: Three Case Studies
    THE PLIGHT OF ANGLICAN CHURCH MUSIC IN THE WESTERN CAPE: THREE CASE STUDIES Levi Eudo Alexander Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music (Choral Conducting) in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University. Supervisor: Martin Berger March 2021 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Levi Alexander March 2021 Copyright © 2021 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved 1 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT Music ministries still providing Anglican church congregations with traditional Anglican church music find themselves clutching onto a musical tradition in a church plagued by the increasing secularisation of society. This thesis, in three case studies, investigates the musical output and general daily function of three Anglican churches in the Western Cape by interviewing the rector and music director of each parish. Each parish was selected as it presented a varied historical, musical, liturgical and churchmanship culture. The aim of the thesis is to ascertain, primarily, whether traditional music is under threat of falling into disuse in the church and secondly, if traditional music is indeed under threat, the possible measures which could be implemented to preserve the heritage for future generations of Anglican worshippers.
