Par BLEZZARD JUDITH. Judith Blezzard This book looks at English church music from a new standpoint. It examines the relationship between English church music and the various types of other music that have influenced its development, revealing a vigorous tradition of interplay with extraneous musical material that is seldom apparent from the ways in which music is presented for church use. The borrowing of music from churches outside England is explored, and a large section is devoted to the often surprisingly ingenious ways in which secular music has, since the beginnings of the English church, been appropriated as music for worship - often with controversial results. From madrigal tomusic-hall, from plainsong to popular styles: these and many other kinds of music have lent both styles and material to sacred music with English texts. By examining these musical transformations, this book demonstrates that English church music is far from being an exclusively insular and retrospective repertory, as is often presumed to be the case. Although the book, with its use of musical examples, is designed primarily for the general musical reader - both amateur and professional, its broadly historical approach will appeal to those interested in English cultural heritage, the church, and its worship.

Tombeau which takes its title from the central elegy of the work was composed 1966-69. Its form is a series of fairly specific technical studies interspersed with variations. The introduction provides a sortof ‘trailer’ in which each phrase of the theme is punctuated by a brief quote from the ensuing studies (heard in reverse order). This scheme is balanced by that of the finale which is also punctuated by short ‘flashbacks’.Tombeau was written as a tribute to certain composers for the piano notably Schumann and Szymanovsky and to a style of playing that has now become almost ‘historic’. It is also a tribute to our beloved masters many of themobscure who made us musicians. It is therefore in many senses a retrospective work the last of a phase undertaken just before a fairly drastic re-evaluation of techniques ideas and intentions. It is dedicated to StephenKovacevich who commissioned it and gave its first performance on the BBC Third Programme and subsequently at Dartington Hall Summer School.
