Gone are the days of services like this. The Church that i was born and grew up in is dead. The Church of England and The Episcopal Church of America are nothing more than husk's of their former selves.
I think there is still a Prayer Book Society trying to keep alive the use of the Book of Common Prayer within the CofE. There are also some continuing Anglican churches not in communion with Canterbury who use the Prayer Book or conservative variants of it.
Thank you so very much for posting this recording.
How many of us remember that the Gloria came after the communion?
I do
I do. The BCP Sung Communion is far better and authentic than this ghastly BCW.
Dear Choirboy from hell, were you a member of the 5th Avenue St. Thomas Church's famed men and boys choir or a visitor to Manhattan, Rector Andrews and Organist Gordon Clemm (pardon the possibility of my misspelling the maestro's surname) the Gloria was usually sung before the Postcommunion prayer. Ah, how splendid is a sharp memory. Thank you and God's speed.
No...never sang there....back row in a major cathedral in the midwest.
BCP order for ever.
Beautiful! Makes work go by faster in the office!
I grew up in the Roman Catholic Church in the Sixties, and was 4 years old when the Mass changed to English in 1964. I did not like when the Mass changed in 1969 in my Archdiocese. So, later in life, I heard tradition Anglican worship. Since my beliefs had become more in line with the 39 Articles, but I did like the more High Solumn form of worship, this is for me the best style of worship in Western Christianity.
I did the Same Two Month ago. AGreat and Beautiful service.
No, go to any Latin Rite Mass in your area.
Just wonderful - praise be to God and the Lamb today and always - blessed be God and the Lamb for ever and ever - amen!
Outstanding recording...thanks for sharing.
Thank you, bless your work. So powerful.
RIP Donald Hunt
The old organ might have been a hotch-potch, but it had a certain something to it.
Wonderful memories but why is the picture accompanying open to Morning Prayer?
Because we didn't have a graphic of a 1662 Prayer Book open at the Communion Service. If you happen to have one, we would be pleased to receive it.
No, I have only the 1962 Canadian book, alas.. somewhere in my library
Is Latin said in this liturgy or is it only during the consecration of the Eucharist?
Divinely" purloined" from the archives of the Seventeenth Century. Richly performed. Pardon my nescience but is this Cathedral in Worchester, MA, USA or in the Royal Kingdom of the UK? Though, I enjoyed each visit to England, I don't recall whether there was a "Worchester" in Great Britain. Please, apprise.
Worcester cathedral in England - 20 minutes car from my home!
