Yes, I hadn’t heard Colin Brumby’s setting of ‘Jesus son most sweet and dear’ before, but it is beautiful. Well worthwhile listening to. My thought this Christmas has been how much more connected the world and Christians for that matter are - the technology has opened things up in ways we are just beginning to use. Some days I sit and think. Other days I just sit!! December 27, 9:12 am | [comment link] |

Agreed - Colin Brumby - another Australian treasure - is a new discovery for me and the duet is wonderful and beautifully sung. |

#4 I would beg to differ, PeterL. Both proclaim in the Word and song the good news of salvation at Christmas - just as if you listen carefully does the liturgy and choral canticles of Matins and Evensong. I thought it was brilliant, and a good use of the opportunity of speaking to many who will just have come for the carols, but have received so much more. Put some of the baggage aside, and just sit back and listen as though you were a Sydneysider, perhaps coming to this service as an irregular or even a new attender, and see what you think. Some days I sit and think. Other days I just sit!! December 27, 11:37 pm | [comment link] |

Probably the most evangelistic carol service you’ll ever see from an Anglican cathedral, unless you’re in Nigeria.
