This book looks at English church music from a new standpoint. It examines the relationship between English church music and the types of other music that have influenced its development, revealing a vigorous tradition of interplay with extraneous musical material that is seldom apparent from the ways in which music is presented for church use. The borrowing of music from churches outside England is explored, and a large section is devoted to the ways in which music is presented for church use.
