From this criticism it is possible to discover many aspects of the style of West Gallery music, especially with regard to singing. Quotes from Thomas Mace [1676], Thomas Shadwell [1676], Dr John Burton [1752], John Brown [18th century], William Figg [first half of 19th century]. Later criticism from Lucy Broadwood, E. D. Edgehills, John Varley and John Antes Latrobe in his ‘The Music of the Church’ of 1831. Criticism of the church bands remembered by Lucy Broadwood from her parents, William Vincent [1790] and Curren [?] rector of Brede, Sussex. The 1841 Church of England quarterly review was very negative about regional church music. 1992-04-25 Ironbridge, Shropshire, England, UK English sound Patten, Bob Patten, Jacqueline Gammon, Vic (male) 44100 16 00:09:45 44100 16 00:09:45 44100 16 128 kbps 00:09:45 44100 16 192 kbps
