This book examines the stylistic development of English cathedral music during a period of liturgical upheaval, looking at the attitudes of cathedral clergy, liturgists, composers, leading church music figures and organisations to music and liturgy. Arguments that were advanced for retaining an archaic style in cathedral music are considered, including the linking of musical style with liturgical language, the recommending of a subservient role for music in the liturgy, and the development of a language of fittingness to describe church music. The roles of the RSCM and other influential bodies are explored. Martin Thomas draws on many sources: the libraries and archives of English cathedrals; contemporary press coverage and the records of church music bodies; publishing practices; secondary literature; and the music itself. Concluding that an arresting of development in English cathedral music has prevented appropriate influences from secular music being felt, Thomas contrasts this with how cathedrals have often successfully and dynamically engaged with the world of the visual arts, particularly in painting and sculpture. Presenting implications for all denominations and for patronage of the arts by churches, and the place of musical aesthetics in the planning of liturgy, this book offers an important resource for music, theology, liturgy students and ministry teams worldwide.

Le théologien explique que, selon lui, l'avenir de la christianisation de l'Afrique réside dans l'africanisation de la musique chrétienne, pour permettre au croyant de se sentir chez lui. Il examine l'héritage de la musique au sein de la Communauté évangélique du Congo et de l'Eglise évangélique du Congo. ©Electre 2016

Martin von Tours, der leuchtende Heilige des 4. Jahrhunderts, ist mit der Geschichte und Gegenwart des Christentums eng verbunden: Seine Mantelteilung gehort zum grossen Erbschatz der christlichen Bilder. Auch als Idealgestalt eines Bischofs war Martin stets mit dabei, wenn sich Kirche erneuerte. Kunst und Musik aus uber 1000 Jahren legen hierfur ein beredtes Zeugnis ab. Das Buch versammelt die schonsten Martinsbilder und -plastiken aus der Diozese Rottenburg-Stuttgart vom Mittelalter bis in die Moderne. Auch die neu eingespielte Musik-CD schlagt einen eindrucksvollen Bogen von der Spiritualitat der Gregorianik bis hin zu frohlichen Kinderliedern und stimmungsvollem Jazz.
