I was just wondering what they do mean by this statement, which is about as specific as promises about Brexit.
Choir Man Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 The complete sentence is: "They will be able to demonstrate their passion for the choral tradition of the Church of England and a commitment to explore new ways of developing that tradition for future generations." The website contains a detailed application pack which expands somewhat on the above. Having read it I would suggest that the 'new ways' are about ensuring a supply of choristers, providing equal opportunities for girls and engagement with the local community. Much the same challenges as the church in general faces in this modern world.

Guest Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Is Mr Richford off to anywhere in particular? I hear his work at Romsey Abbey was held in high regard.

I don't know the Romsey set up at all and have never heard any of the choirs, but the whole musical thing there looked astonishingly good - just what any thinking church would want to encourage and a great example of music being central to church life. Great to see... and to be part of, I imagine!

David Drinkell Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 Congratulations to Belfast on securing Matthew, and best wishes to Matthew as he takes up the post. Matthew's wife is a local girl, so he knows the place well - as a previous Organist & Master of the Choristers at St. Anne's, I have very fond memories of Belfast and Northern Ireland, and the rejuvenation and enthusiastic development of activities at the Cathedral (following a traumatic period under a previous Dean - the present one and his predecessor have worked wonders) makes me very happy.
