  1. I went to the launch event last week and bought a copy there... I can confirm that it exists and is on my desk next to me now!
  2. On the system I've been using, there isn't any delay that is noticeable - there's only about three foot of cable between the camera and the computer, although the projector system sends the HDMI signal about 20m. There is a way to send the camera signal via wifi or wired network, but this does introduce some delay - how much I'm not sure... it's on my list of things to play around with at some point!
  3. Look into OBS software - it's free, and I think capable of what you're wanting to do. I'm currently using it on my MacBook with an iPhone and an iPad as the video sources to stream our services but we're also putting the output onto a screen in church to mix in remote readers or preachers, and so people can see more clearly. To see what we've achieved for next to no cost, take a look at some of the recent live streams on here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8EzRFqM9LTo4kruuf4qd_w
  4. From Brownes Facebook page this afternoon:
  5. For those looking for a picture of the new organ loft at Canterbury, I was in the cathedral today and took a few pictures to post here until there's something more official available. Steve
  6. Nearly 25 years ago while at university, we sang Bruckner's setting complete with several trombones, for the licensing of a new Dean of Chapel. Good fun, but sadly never had the brass resources to do it since!
  7. St Stephen's Church, Hales Drive, Canterbury, CT2 7AB Tuesday 28th July 2015, 7.30pm David Poulter (Liverpool Cathedral) A superb programme of music by J. S. Bach, English composers Elgar, Walton and Whitlock, Noel Rawsthorne (David’s predecessor at Liverpool) and Pierre Cochereau, one time Organist Titular of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, all carefully chosen to demonstrate the capabilities of our newly rebuilt organ. Tickets £10 (under 18s FREE) Ticket price includes refreshments
  8. The Carols for Choirs 5 version doesn't have the solo pedal reed passage though, but shorter links between the verses. The original arrangement for pianos was by Mack Wilberg. Steve
  9. It's working ok for me: http://www.organstops.org/
  10. I am currently on holiday in Cornwall and was at the service in Truro Cathedral on Sunday afternoon (and morning too as it happens); very good combination of music and readings, and the Crown Imperial was very good. Only slight disappointment was the lack of reeds used in Greater Love, but as I don't know the organ they may have obliterated the choir, had they been used! However, as I and most of the choir were away, back home they had a quiet said service on Sunday evening with no music at all. Steve
  11. Sadly I don't have a local music shop that stocks this sort of publication, so before I buy online, would you say the quality of the compositions was superior to those published by other publishers, particularly those, say, who are based in the Suffolk area...? Incidentally, when I was last in London and browsing through the music in one shop, I picked up a book published by said Suffolk based publishers that had been rescanned and published from a copy full of an organist's pencil markings!
  12. I'd be interested to see a photograph of your LED set up, AJJ, if that's possible?
  13. That was a trip down memory lane! I had that recording on cassette tape when I was a youngster back in the 80s - at the time having no idea that I'd end up living in Canterbury and regularly taking my church choir (St Stephen's, to the north-east of the city) to sing services there. Thanks for posting! Steve
  14. Not by any means an exhaustive analysis, but bars 1-9 are based on the opening melody of the verse 'Lord the light of your love...', bars 9-17 the end of the verse, with the 'shine on me' being bars 14-17. Then the refrain is hidden in the quavers of the right hand 18 onwards. These themes are then repeated, developed etc through the rest of the piece. Steve
  15. I ordered mine from the RSCM online shop on Monday evening and it arrived today. Now I just need to finish these Year 9 reports so that I can have a play through! Steve
