As the Church of England´s official music agency, The Royal School of Church Music has been coordinating the work of providing musical settings for the new services in Common Worship. The resulting publications are the fruit of consultations of parish and cathedral clergy, musicians, liturgists and composers, and are edited by John Harper, Director of the RSCM. As local communities think afresh about their pattern of worship, Music for Common Worship will assist clergy and musicians in the exercise of their ministries, and stimulate worship in parishes.
This particular volume offers a concise and straightforward handbook exploring some general principles of music for Common Worship. It considers each service in turn and gives guidance on the use of musical resources including materials found in new resource books and others already in use.
