'Every person involved in church music should own at least one volume for reference.' Creator
The definitive collection of 100 anthems, mostly for SATB voices, from Tudor times to the present day, including favourites from each period, and lesser-known pieces. Keyboard reductions are included for unaccompanied music, and organ accompaniments are always practical.
The New Church Anthem Book is one of the finest collections of sacred music ever collected in one volume, and its use throughout the universal church will offer great hope for the future of church music well into the next century. Oxford University Press deserves the highest praise for this project. Every person involved in church music should own at least one volume for reference. * Creator *
The print is OUP clarity itself throughout . . . Dr Dakers has performed an epoch-making task and the book is wholeheartedly to be commended . . . It represents a musical milestone . . . a thing of beauty as well as a fairly precise record of current taste. * Organists' Review *
