In June 2023, we took part in a celebration of Vaughan Williams’ music, specifically his collecting of folk tunes which metamorphosed into hymn tunes which he incorporated into the English Hymnal of 1906 which he edited. The celebration was a year long, involving concerts around the country, and we were privileged to be invited the choir performing in Huddersfield, by Broomdasher – the organisers of From Pub to Pulpit. We gave a recital of music by Vaughan Williams and his teachers (Stanford, Parry and Wood) in the first half, then led the massed singing by a full audience of three of his hymns, accompanied by David Pipe on the organ, in the second half. A memorable event!
