Music for Sunday 2 January 2011

This week the parish is keeping Epiphany.  The good thing about anticipating the feast is that we get to keep the Baptism of the Lord next week -- one of those rare years where it comes up.

Readings are linked here, and the psalm setting here.

The setting will be Philip Mathias' Christ Church Mass (Together in Song, 757).  Hymns are as follows:

Introit: As with gladness men of old [314]
Sequence: Earth has many a noble city [291]
Offertory: The first nowell [301]
Communion: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning [310]

The music is to be led by the adults of the choir.
