Another of my favorites of his is “For All the Saints” (especially with all the verses). It’s so inspiring, plus it has one of those melodies that never ends ... like our pilgrimage here on earth...

The ECUSA hymnal has alternating unison and parts verses, with beautiful smooth harmony in the parts verses alternating with the crashing unison accompaniment.

Pretty cool.

The Piskies may be a bunch of heretics, but their music is the tops.

Anglican Music is one reason I waited so long to convert. My old ECUSA parish, Incarnation in Dallas, has a fabulous music program featuring all the wonderful English hymns and anthems as well as awesome organ and organists. They’ve been on tour to England several times, made numerous CDs, and have several choirs for various ages. It was hard to give up... :(

But I gradually realized, better to have bad music and Truth, than excellent music and heresy...

Me too, but the Lord and St. Cecilia took pity on me.

Our music is wonderful. Any time you're in the Atlanta area, drop in and we'll sing something particularly Anglican (we sing a lot of Byrd, Tallis, and the Victorians like Howells).
