General Information

Title: The 'Flat' Service
Composer: Edmund Hooper

Number of voices: 4vv   Voicing: SATB
(plus verse solos)
Genre: SacredEvening Canticles

Language: English
Instruments: Organ

First published: 2013

Description: Reconstructed by David Allinson from the Batten organ book (Tenbury Wells collection held in the Oxford Bodleian Library). The music survives uniquely in this source, where it is untexted and incomplete, though there are a few textual cues and verse sections are marked (though it is not specified which voices are involved). In the score, small notes are editorial. A few editorial dynamics are included in the organ part, to help conductors.
