Description

Explore the groundbreaking Hymnal 1982 through the eyes of its creators as the Episcopal Church celebrates the fortieth anniversary of its publication.

The Hymnal 1982 is a landmark publication that has shaped the Church's song and provided a wealth of musical resources. Through the author's first-person interviews, meet the poets, composers, clergy, liturgists, and scholars who contributed to this influential book, and hear their insights about what has worked well--and the changes they envision for the future. The author also shares her observations, as well as input from musicians currently serving Episcopal parishes. Discussion questions and hymn suggestions related to each chapter provide a highly usable resource for group study in celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the hymnal's publication.
