Bemrose’s Choir Chant Book (1882)

Bemrose's Choir Chant Book (1882) is a book of religious music compiled and edited by Charles Edward Stephens. The book contains chants and hymns for use in church services, particularly in Anglican and Catholic churches. The chants are arranged according to the liturgical calendar, with sections for Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, and other special occasions. The book also includes a section on plainchant, as well as a selection of psalms and canticles. The music is presented in four-part harmony, with the text of the chants and hymns printed below the musical notation. Bemrose's Choir Chant Book was widely used in churches throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and is still considered a valuable resource for choirs and musicians today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
