  '200 Hymns' - CDs for worship

These unique CDs of choir and organ are used all over the world to accompany congregations when no organist is available.

 

 

200 Hymns

No organist? "200 Hymns" CDs of choir and organ are the perfect solution!

If finding a regular organist is a problem for your church, '200 Hymns' is the perfect - and proven - solution!

There are 220 hymns, and the music for Mattins and Evensong, on 15 specially-produced CDs. There is also 'Reflections', a separate double CD of organ music to play before and after services. Click here to hear samples of the music, or to place an order. Alternatively, email us or call 01522 536981 for a CD on free approval.

'200 Hymns' is the ONLY large collection of choir-and-organ CDs to have been specially produced to accompany smaller congregations. The performances are simple and straightforward, making them equally suitable for home listening. Each hymn is preceded by an organ playover of the first line, and the recorded words are compatible with Hymns Ancient and Modern ('Revised' and 'New Standard').

The hymns lead singing in many churches, who have made comments such as:
'We recently took advantage of your Christmas offer of the set of '200 Hymns' and they are a big hit with our congregation at St Mary's Church, Rhuddlan'.....
'On behalf of the Committee of St Mary's Church, Brignall, may I say how delighted we are with the '200 Hymns' CD collection received recently.... - a blessing for small rural churches like ours struggling to have the services of an organist.'......
'It is the best large hymn collection by choir and organ that I have come across, giving me hours of enjoyment listening to hymns performed the way I like them' (R Crook, Australia).

Before we made the recordings we conducted trials with a village congregation. These proved that choir-and-organ recordings are much more effective in leading singing than organ-only. The presence of the recorded choir creates the impression of a larger body of people, and encourages those present to sing.

The CDs are available individually. A cased set of 14 CDs is also available at a special discount making the price £139.00 (plus P+P) for the whole collection of 220 hymns. The organ music, and Mattins and Evensong, are available on separate CDs.

As with all Cantoris CDs there is a full 30-day money back guarantee. Click here.

The hymns are sung by Lincoln Cathedral Choir, accompanied by Dr Philip Marshall, with additional contributions from the Choir of St James's, Louth (Peter Burness) and Ripon Cathedral (Kerry Beaumont).
