About this title

Review:

'What Common Praise does well is to marry texts with appropriate tunes, carrying on the tradition of Hymns Ancient & Modern. In this way, the poetry of the texts is brought more alive and can better uplift those who participate in the worship.' (Music and Liturgy)

'Congregations mainly using traditional material and looking to replace elderly hymnbooks could find most of their needs met here.' (News of Liturgy)

'This definitive collection of hymnody forms truly a kernal of universal song. It is quite simply for so many reasons, a 'must have'.' Organists Review

'Ancient & Modern adherents will love Common Praise.' (News of Hymnody)

'It is a joy to handle, elegant in its appearance and priced very competitively. There are riches in abundance for everyone.' (The Organ)
