the melody that you like is also used for the christmas carol o come o come emmanuel very lovely church the organ there might be a later re build or brought from elsewhere the tornai font is lovely also with the light to show the ornate features as well as the large tapestry which is very well made the choir group performed very well
Absolutely FIRST RATE!! Thank you for staying out the time here; a beautiful Norman building, lovingly cared for and tastefully modified thru time. What a great treat to hear the singing of tunes that rouse fond memories of such music which I myself gloried in singing in my years long passed - ❤ 🥰 Thanks again!!
So glad you enjoyed it. It makes it worthwhile putting so much effort into creating these explorations. You made my day, Margaret, so thank you for that 🤗
Would be nice! Many years ago I did 4 part monk backing vocals to a song I wrote - with false latin too! I contacted a local catholic church about latin plainsong and the guy told me to contact an abbot at a nearby monastery - it was really surreal meeting him and him kindly singing and translating latin, whilst I looped 4 chords on the abbey synthesizer! He allowed me to record it and use it to do my pseudo latin. It was quite an experience. I was going to write down the latin but he suggested photocopying it instead - I wasn't expecting the Monastery to have a photocopier! 😱🤗
I enjoyed the slow attention to details, as if i were taking this walk myself. I agree with your opinion about the new building, and I appreciated focusing on the mild connection between the new building and the transcept at 6:40. It was a bit shocking being carried with you behind the altar rail, though. Once I saw the bins nestled outside, I figured this to be a living parish. Nice activity inside.
Hello. I really appreciate your comment about the slow attention to details as if you were taking the walk yourself - it is very unTH-cam like but I do like the idea, that you actually become me viewing it, in the sense of a meditative state of just the thing that's being observed, not the observer watching it - so thank you for that. I know what you mean regarding tmy movement behind the Altar - it was quite forward (of me and the altar!). I'm not meaning to be intrusive, but often features are tucked away and I'm attempting to get as much detail as I can, in the time available. It's a lovely church. If I could afford it, I'd join their choir and live there!
Even though you lingered on it at least twice, I still couldn't figure out how the brass (?) reredos (?) above the altar in the Lady Chapel were illuminated. It was magnificent. From what was it lit?
I just looked back at it, and I can't work out myself how the reredos nor brasses were lit! I can only think it was the light, although the reredos have an artificial lit feel about them. Nice observation by you though - thanks for commenting!

Yep, I agree with all you said - just wish I could’ve made the concert - never mind - it was good to hear the practise.
One of my favourite churches and always a lovely experience to visit.
Yes, it's a good one isn't it. And the icing on the cake, for me was the delectable music 🍰🎶
