Themed quiet days for those of all faiths and none - by Nick FawcettIn our restless modern world, in which many seem as troubled and stressed as they have ever been, we need to make time to be still, to commune with something beyond ourselves. This book aims to help in enabling just that, offering a resource for the staging of Quiet Days or reflective events on a variety of themes and, if so wished, for those of all faiths or none. Rather than dealing with overtly religious issues, it approaches everyday matters from a spiritual perspective, covering themes as diverse as anxiety, anger, sorrow, friendship, suffering, envy, truth, loneliness and numerous others, each moving from the negative to the positive, the life denying to the life affirming. Here is a book that will help many to find the guidance in their daily lives they so urgently seek.

Over 500 fun pieces to make you sound amazing!Tip-top Trumpet Tunes is a fun resource book with everything you need for beginners and up to Grade 2 standard. There are lots of tunes specifically designed to make learning easy and fun, including many favourites that children love to play.The book is a complete resource for beginners, containing a large selection of tunes, starting on just two notes. It recognises that not all beginners find the same notes accessible or learn at the same rate, so there are numerous pieces using an assorted variety of notes and the book progresses slowly and gradually onto new notes and rhythms. This is ideal for beginners who have no prior musical knowledge or who struggle to produce notes in certain registers. Other students can move on more quickly to new notes and explore more rhythmic ideas, but the early pieces make great sight-reading material.Basic theory is set out at the beginning and a 'Rhythm Section' on one note (which can be any suitable note) helps players to start learning new rhythmic ideas without having to think about playing different notes. Later in the book, more complex rhythms are explored more thoroughly and as new notes are introduced, there are many opportunities for playing in different keys and learning key signatures. At the end of the book is a section of lip flexibility exercises that can be started on at any time, all the scales and arpeggios for Grades 1 and 2, and a fingering chart.ContentsAbout the composerUsing this bookG and FC and DRhythm SectionMore F and GE (E and F)G and EE, F and GMore C and DC and ED and EC, D and ED, E and F 27C, D, E and FD, E, F and GC to GSlursSemiquaversDotted quaver and semiquaverCompound timeA (F, G and A)E, F, G and AC to ADynamicsLow BHigh BF sharpLow A 59Low C sharpHigh CG sharpB flatLow B flatE flatHigh DHigh C sharpLip Flexibility ExercisesScales and ArpeggiosNotes and Fingerings

Instruments: SATBThe hymn arrangements in Grand Endings are intended for those special occasions and festivals when something particularly splendid is called for. Each consists of a choral setting of the penultimate verse and a short organ introduction to the last verse: this has a special descant marked with a fine choral conclusion. Colin Mawby writes, 'These arrangements should be sung with joy and vigour; choir and organist should uplift the congregation and create that wonderful sense of the memorable and numinous.'Please note made to order items are non-returnableContentsAbide with me - EventideAll creatures of our God and King - Lasst uns ErfreuenAll for Jesus! - All for JesusAll hail the power of Jesus' name - Miles LaneAll people that on earth do dwell - Old HundredthAll ye who seek a comfort sure - St BernardAlleluia, sing to Jesus - HyfrydolAngel-voices ever singing - Angel VoicesAs with gladness men of old - DixAt the Lamb's high feast we sing - SalzburgAt the name of Jesus - EvelynsBe thou my vision - SlaneBlest are the pure in heart - FranconiaBreathe on me, breath of God - CarlisleBright the vision that delighted - Laus DeoChrist is made the sure foundation - Westminster AbbeyCome, let us join our cheerful songs - NativityEarth has many a noble city - StuttgartGlorious things of thee are spoken - AustriaGlory be to Jesus - CaswallGod of grace and God of glory - Regent SquareHail the day that sees him rise - LlanfairHail to the Lord's anointed - CrügerHoly, holy, holy!

Light has long been a symbol of power and hope, a reminder of the abiding presence, peace and love of God; of triumph over darkness. The services in this book take inspiration from the many different ways candlelighting has been used over the centuries for devotion and thanksgiving. There are services for special occasions including Advent, Titles of the Christ (the 'O Antiphons'), Easter and All Saints as well as for relevant themes: Birth, Journeying and for times of darkness. They are adaptable so that they can be used at the lighting of the candles in church before the Eucharist, at home as an evening devotion, at the start of a Bible group, or with each candle prayer used as a meditation in itself. Each service is structured to include a welcome, candle-lighting, special intention and closing prayer, with a focus on quiet reflection in the presence of God and the aim of carrying his light out into the world.

One of the many challenges presented by church services is how to unite people of all ages and abilities in prayer in a way which engages them all. All-Sorts Prayer offers an opportunity to do just this.Drawing on her experience of leading creative prayer, Claire Benton-Evans uses symbols, actions and sensory experience to provide adaptable and original prayers for an 'all-sorts' congregation. The prayers are grouped by theme and suggested position in the service. Each prayer clearly lists resources needed, words for the leader, a prayer action and closing words. Instructions are given to help the nervous leader, while those more experienced can just pick up the prayers and go.The accompanying downloads provides many of the resources needed for the prayers, while other suggested resources include essential oils, honey and glow-sticks!

The recently rediscovered National Chartist Hymn Book has powerful and poetic lyrics with a spirituality committed to social justice.Garth takes these passionate hymns and puts tunes to them (the hymn book only had lyrics) to bring alive these fascinating songs that, though written about the events of 1845, seem to have a remarkable relevance to our own society.They are rousing and thoughtful songs which echo with words such as Raise! Raise the cry! Let all respond; 'Justice, and pure and equal laws.' Garth's hope is that this revival of hymns from the Chartist Movement will bring alive these poetic and challenging hymns for a new generation.ContentsHail, glorious morn!Assembled 'neath thy broad blue skyDaily breadSons of povertyFor every thing a timeMen of EnglandLo, in thy nameHark, I hearHow longGod of the poor!Great God!Source of good
