Sunday 9th September

We had a smaller choir today so we sang Martin How's "Day by day" and William Harris's simple communion setting in F. There were 3 baptisms and my playing of "Land of hope and glory" at the end was much appreciated. Well why not reflect the Last Night of the Proms? The wedding photos were much enjoyed at coffee and the late bride and her husband came to apologise! There were various muddleups with flowers and people getting lost!
I visited Grandma in hospital and Dennis and Liz went later. Liz was helping at the Tour of Britain at Crystal Palace. At evensong we sang Harris in A minor, Psalm 121 to Barry Rose's fine chant and Purcell's "Rejoice in the Lord alway". I played Arthur Milner's variations on a Northumbrian tune and Flor Peeters' voluntary on "Tallis Canon". It was Racial Justice Sunday. Watched the recording of Michael Wood in India and the South African children filmed at 7, 14 and 21. Delighted to see Yeoville and St John's College.
