Rumpus, Riot & Rebellion
Life in recession-hit 21st century Britain might be tough,
but the reign of George III saw hardships of an altogether
darker complexion. With the country almost constantly at
war, hunger and the threat of invasion was part and parcel
of everyday life for the common man.
Meanwhile, in the over-taxed colonies of New England, other
trouble was brewing, and it wasn’t just tea ...
Let
Immanuel’s Ground take you on a musical journey to Georgian
times, with plenty of opportunity for audience
participation.

West Gallery returns
to Lichfield
Wade Street Church, Lichfield
As part of the
Lichfield Heritage Weekend's Georgian Festival 2016,
Immanuel's Ground will be singing during the morning at the Wade
Street Church, both at 11.00 am, and again at 12.00
noon, for the benefit of
those visiting the Church.
At 2.00 pm that afternoon the Quire will be leading a Workshop
for Singers and Instrumentalists in the Hall adjoining the
Church, to which everyone is welcome. The music will include
hymns and metrical psalms from the period roughly 1740 to 1840,
of the sort which predated the production of hymn books such as
Hymns Ancient & Modern in 1851.
This hymn book imposed rigorous Victorian harmonies on the
newly surpliced choirs formed by followers of the Oxford
Movement, and thus helped to sweep away almost all the
earlier church music, and the quires themselves, which was so
characteristic of what we now call the West Gallery
period.
Immanuel's Ground
specialise in finding and revisiting
the joyous harmonies of this forgotten era of church and
chapel music, accompanied by the sort of instruments which
replaced the organs destroyed by the Commonwealth, and written
about
by Thomas Hardy in his novels of Georgian times, such as
Under the Greenwood Tree.
Music will be provided, the cost being approximately £2. To
help with preparing the music booklets, please contact the Wade
Street Church Office (Tel:
01543 253003) to confirm numbers, and also what instruments you
will be bringing.
