English Cathedral Music and Liturgy in the Twentieth Century

Focusing on the evolution of English cathedral music amid liturgical changes, Martin Thomas reveals how influential church music figures hindered stylistic innovation, leading to a distinct and traditional genre. Utilizing primary sources from cathedrals' libraries and archives, he examines contemporary media coverage, church music organizations, publishing practices, and the music itself. This work serves as a valuable resource for students and ministry teams in music, theology, and liturgy globally.
