2008 - A honour for Graham Wadley and St Mary's Church, Wivenhoe
Graham Wadley, Director of Music at St. Mary’s, has
recently been appointed as a Council Member for the Royal School of Church
Music. This is the Governing
Body of the organisation which provides training and support in all
aspects of Church Music, not only in the UK, but throughout the world. Obviously this is a great honour for Graham, following
over 30 years involvement with the RSCM as a local representative and
officer of the Area Committee covering Essex and East London, as well as an honour for St Mary's Church to have its Director of Music
appointed to the Council. His work, together with the responsibility of arranging so much music at parish level for St. Mary’s for so many years and also running St Mary's Singers, will be useful experience for this position on the RSCM Council, determining policy and direction for Church Music. The RSCM:
The RSCM supports a world-wide network of 9,000
churches, schools and individuals. It is committed to achieving the best
use of good music in worship – whatever the resources, whatever the
style. Through education, training, publications, advice and
encouragement, we aim to support church music today and to invest in
church music for the future. For more information about the Royal School of Church Music see their web site: www.rscm.com
