Some links to other web sites (all open in a new window)

A great deal of information about the church music of the 18th and early 19th century can be found on the West Gallery Association web site.

The picture on the 'Join us' page is amongst those in their Art Gallery.

The title of the 2024 workshop came from John Wesley's 'Directions' for singers in Selected Hymns, 1761. Directions IV, V, and VI relate to the style of singing.
