Candlemas

We had a Candlemas service at St Mary?s tonight with a large choir, and it sounded good, well I think it did!
We had some new friends in the choir tonight, it?s always good to get new singers into the choir especially when they are good singers and nice people who enjoy the pub after evensong.

Psalm: 24
Magnificat: Magnificat primi toni - Palestrina
