Didn't
George Carlin, that delightful curmudgeon, once say something about how the only good part of Western religion was the music? Well, YMMV, of course; but we reckon this glorious concert will lift whatever flavor of human spirit you have. Organist
Eric Mellenbruch and the
St. David's choir, directed by
David Stevens, present
early music based on hymns from the first English-language hymnal, featuring
Renaissance motets and
early Baroque organ verses interspersed with the hymns themselves, as they would have been in that period.
