Over the course of the past 25 years, a quiet but persistent
revolution has been taking place in English cathedrals, in some
larger churches in major towns and cities, as well as the chapels
of university colleges. The numbers of people drawn by the
distinctive musical character of their worship has risen
significantly, with Choral Evensong becoming the locus of this
persistent growth in the numbers of worshippers. A significant
number of these people are under 40 years of age; and many others
have, until now, lived their lives on the edges of the Church - if
not completely beyond it. Simon Reynolds believes Evensong is
providing a place of sanctuary for people seeking space for
reflection in a frenetic world. It is becoming a significant part
of the Church of England’s mission. Lighten Our Darkness provides
the definitive guide to Choral Evensong, and will be a fascinating
introduction for newcomers to this historic form of worship, and
for clergy and students wishing to explore its roots.
