Music Notes

Hymn 379: God is Love; let heaven adore him

This splendid music was written in 1941 at the wartime headquarters of the BBC, in a little village near Bristol, Abbot’s Leigh (hence the tune’s name). The composer, Cyril Vincent Taylor, an Anglican priest serving in religious broadcasting, wanted to provide an alternative tune to “Austria,” which was unsingable in England during WWII. The tune then took on its own life as it spread through the world on BBC radio. This text was found among the papers of Timothy Rees, the Bishop of Llandaff, after his death in 1939; it was paired with this tune in 1951, its stirring words so well suited to the music’s movement. - Donna Wessel Walker

Little Lamb (Cherwien)

David Cherwien (b.1957), music director of the National Lutheran Choir, is a founding member of the Association of Lutheran Church Musicians and served as its National President from 1993 to 1997. This morning’s anthem sets the innocence yet complexity of William Blake’s poem in four part texture (with some divisi), vacillating between major and minor chords as the narrative fluctuates between query and statement. - Dennis Powers
