Comments and Reviews


Gill Sans SUBS 5th Aug 2022		The tracks are entered with the hymn-tune name first, followed by the first line of verse. By contrast with Volume 1, the majority of these hymns are decidedly mournful. Elisha West's Evening Hymn is openly funereal, though the silver lining is the fugueing refrain, which is great fun to sing. This tune has reappeared in two more hymns.
