The book covers a wide range of topics related to church music, including the history of church music, the role of music in worship, the use of instruments in the choral service, and the importance of congregational participation. The author also addresses common objections to church music, such as the belief that it is too elaborate or distracting, and argues that these objections are based on misunderstandings of the true nature and purpose of church music.Overall, Conversations On The Choral Service is a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the role of music in worship and the challenges faced by those who seek to promote and preserve the choral service in the face of popular prejudices.
