INTRODUCING AN ALL-NEW BOOK ABOUT EVENSONG AND CHOIRS
EVENSONG - NOTES FROM THE CHOIR
A brand new "laugh out loud" book by Timothy E. Popple, the man behind Quires and Places, published 21 April 2025.
Sir John Rutter writes of the book:
The ultimate insider's guide to everyone's favourite Church of England service: Choral Evensong, as heard in cathedrals and churches throughout the land.
Tim Popple, ex-chorister and now cathedral choirman, lifts the lid on its mysteries with the lightest of touches, plenty of anecdotes, and some laugh-out-loud moments.
Whether you are a seasoned devotee or you don't know your versicles from your canticles, this book is guaranteed to have you running to your nearest cathedral to experience the beauties of choral worship . . . and you will go back and back.
Tim writes:
Drawing on experience from my whole life singing in choirs, and more recently running QuireMemes, the book is a celebration of the world we know and love - and an introduction to it for our friends and family.
The book will be launched on Wednesday 14 May following Evensong at Holy Sepulchre in London.
