Come & Sing Evensong! events are becoming increasingly popular and this collection provides most of what you need to organise your own. It includes sets of Preces and Responses, a variety of settings of the Magnificat & Nunc Dimittis, and a range of anthems – all suitable for singing with just one rehearsal. Simon Lole, who holds a Come & Sing Evensong! every month at his church in Swanage, provides guidance on how to organise an event in your own parish, as well as performance notes for all the pieces in the book. All you need to add is a Psalm and some hymns.
