Music for Sunday 25 September 2011

This week the parish is keeping St Michael and All Angels.  Readings can be found here, following the Roman options, and I posted the response to the psalm setting here.

The first part of the setting will be the Kyrie from John Merbecke's The Prayer Booke Noted, along with a Gloria from Taize.  The remainder of the setting will be Philip Mathias's Christ Church Mass [Together in Song, 757].  Hymns as follows:

Introit: Christ, the fair glory of the holy angels [tune: Christe Sanctorum -- TIS 246]
Sequence: Now to the Lord a noble song [113, tune: Melcombe -- TIS 213 ii]
Offertory: Crown him with many crowns [228]
Communion: Come let us join our cheerful songs [204]

There will be a communion anthem at St George's, and again at All Saints:
Angels ever bright and fair -- Georg Frederick Handel
