Advent 2008
A successful Advent Vigil was held by Canterbury Branch at St Mary's Church Manchester Street, Christchurch. A goodly number of choristers reported 4.15pm to rehearse and then sing at the 6.30pm Service. Of particular interest was the setting of one of the propers of the Mass by Maxwell Fernie (recognised during his lifetime as a world authority on plainsong etc) and arranged for SATB by Robert Tait, an RSCMNZ Councillor.
