(More customer reviews)Our Epsicopal Church does a Communion Service on Sunday Evening taken from the Iona Abby in Scotland. This is one of the songbooks used in this service. I bought this book to practice the music before each service. A good book, a bit expensive but worth it to me to have both lyrics and music to work with.

This song book draws on all traditions for its source material and is designed to become personalised by every church which uses it. Based on the principal of fresh words and ideas, it offers the Church ways of breaking out of old musical patterns. It contains: standard favourites not available in "CH3"; world songs where simple textures combine to make rich sounds; many good contemporary hymns in traditional style, reflecting dialogue, prayers and actions of the Church today; psalms which are shared between solo/choir/cantor and congregation; communion settings by Scotland's leading contemporary composer, James MacMillan; songs and Psalms from recent Scottish and American Roman Catholic writing, suitable for occasions when we worship together (as well as useful in their own right); hymn and Psalm settings from the Iona Community and other popular Scottish sources; short musical settings to enhance participation in prayers; hymns in Gaelic with translations; and psalms and hymns set to Scottish folk tunes.
