Alleluias of Saint James (Let all mortal flesh keep silence) Words Liturgy of St James Music Trad. French melody arr. A. J. Greening
This is a translation from the Greek Liturgy of St James. It is usually set to the traditional French tune of Picardy. Today's arrangement of this hymn tune was verses 1 and 3 in unison and verses 2 and 4 sopranos and tenors being the leader and altos and basses the follower singing in canon, but to a slightly different tune.
Most people will recognise this as the hymn "Let all mortal flesh keep silence".
Next week is the first Sunday of the month (also the first Sunday of Advent) and so we shall be singing Choral Evensong at 3.30pm with tea and cake after the service.
