Each January the Diocesan Church Music Committee runs a short course in music, liturgy and worship. The course is held on four Saturday mornings and aims to show how the role of the musician and music supports, complements and generally interacts with liturgy and theology.
Musicians, clergy, worship planners, lay leaders or members of congregations all benefit from the course. Practical music skills are not required to take part.
The course is very popular. All the students working for the Archishop's Certificate in Church Music attend, and the course is open to anyone else interested. Some people enjoy the event so much that they quickly enrol for the following year.
