This collection is intended primarily for choirs with

limited resources. Some of the anthems are for unison voices,

others are in two, three or four parts. Several are adaptable

and consequently may be sung in more than one way.

They represent an interesting cross-section of different

styles and idioms ranging from the seventeenth century to

the present day.
