		Psalms — sung to Anglican chant by the choir or congregation

	Protestant church music
		The first protestant church music to be heard in Canada was sung by French Huguenots who during the 17th century brought with them to Acadia the French Psalter of 1562.
		By the 1920s an entire generation of church musicians was being trained in Canada, notably under Hugh Bancroft in Winnipeg (and later Vancouver), Frederick Chubb in Vancouver, Healey Willan and Ernest MacMillan in Toronto, and Alfred Whitehead in Montreal.
		Signs have pointed in that direction: a Summer Institute of Church Music was inaugurated at Whitby, Ont in 1970, church music has been added to the courses in the faculty of music at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, and similar initiatives have been taken in other parts of Canada.

	Anglican Introduction
		Anglican music true to its essence exercises restraint and distinguishes itself from secular expression because sacred music is analogous to the Divine Order, as In Tune with Heaven, the Report of the Archbishops’ Commission on Church Music (London: Church House, 1992) observes.
		Music at the parish church, at the simplest level, was largely confined to hymn and Psalm singing and perhaps to simple Psalm-tone settings of the canticles and simple settings of parts of the eucharistic ordinary.
		Music in the broad sense is integral to the authority of liturgy for interpreting the Bible and bringing the gospel into daily life.

	The Relation of Church Music to Ecclesiastical Architecture
		And therefore the music teacher's task is to nourish a vital art: to develop, in separate individuals or in groups, the essential musical process-self-expression, in music, of something worth expressing, and for the utterance of which an inner need is felt.
		When we consider the general condition of Church Music in America, it is quite plain that herein is a problem of musical education which, notwithstanding some progress, is far from being solved.
		Yet musical composers, wholly disregarding this historical and devotional form, proceed to make a vast dynamic climax of the closing words, "let me never be confounded," as though "me" were the most important person in the universe, instead of one of the least.

	Music
		The true mission of church music is to support the voices of the congregation; we believe choral leadership of the hymns and service music is vital in this regard.
		Additional musical adornment of the liturgy is provided to give worshippers a glimpse of transcendence and mystery, traits too often absent from modern life and more recent religious movements.
		The venerable corpus of Anglican church music (which is based on texts from Holy Scripture as well as writings of the great theologians and poets), is highly valued by the parish of Christ's Church.

		Harold Edwin Darke (1888-1976) is a leading figure in the revival of Anglican church music that began around the end of the 19th century and continues to the present day.
		The text for his splendid anthem Let all mortal flesh keep silence is taken from the orthodox Liturgy of St. James, and speaks directly to today’s celebration of the feast of St. Michael and All Angels.
		Musically, the text draws on orthodox choral traditions, such as the tenor and bass singing in octave unison, and word-painting such as when upper voices only sing the words and lift itself above all earthly thought.
