Music of the Liturgy in English According to the Use of the Episcopal Church

Columbia ML-4528 (1952) This fascinating record is really two albums in one. The first, directed by Ray F. Brown, is a "Plainsong" rendition of the 1928 Book of Common Prayer Holy Communion and Evening Prayer. The "Plainsong" is what we would generally call Gregorian Chant (or in the style of Gregorian Chant.) It's well done but how it comes across depends on how well you like Gregorian Chant, which these days is a subject tied up in the Traditional Latin Mass and all of the controversy that swirls around that. Suffice it to say that, if your parish is interested in attracting TLM people who feel they're being run out of their own Church (and a case can be made that this is the case) then this Mass, properly executed, should go a long way to making TLM exiles happy. The second, directed by Harold W. Gilbert with Andrew Tietjen at the organ, features Anglican Chant. For me it's of more personal interest, having been raised in the "Old High Church." Anglican Chant is polyphonic, as is the case with that of Orthodox churches. It's well done and brings back many memories. Anglican chant has gotten the short shrift in the liturgical changes of the last half century, but it deserves better. The song lists below refer to the 1940 Hymnal.
