RSCM Queensland continues to present its Festival of Great Hymns in 2021, but because of the Covid situation, the Festival takes on a different format. Instead of having a large central event, this year RSCM Qld is joining with local congregations to present the Festival.
On Sunday 24th October at 2.30pm, a “Festival of Great Contemporary Hymns” will be held jointly with the Pilgrim People Brisbane congregation at Merthyr Road Uniting Church, 52 Merthyr Road, New Farm, Brisbane.
The Festival will feature hymns with words by contemporary hymn writers including John Bell, Robin Mann, Shirley Murray, Brian Wren, Carolyn Gillette, Fred Kaan, Fred Pratt-Green, Bernadette Farrell, & Timothy Dudley-Smith, and composers including Colin Gibson, Robert Boughen, Colin Brumby, Michael Baughen, Eric Gross and Ernest Sands. Refreshments will be served following the Festival.
As in the past, RSCM members and friends are invited to join the choir (this time, The Pilgrim Singers, conducted by Adele Nisbet and accompanied by organist Dr Steven Nisbet). A choir rehearsal will be held in the church at 1.30pm on the day. Please contact Adele if you are interested in joining the choir. ( or 0407-397-091)
RSCM members and friends are also invited to attend the event. Please register for Covid & catering purposes by 5pm Friday 22 October: email – or phone: 0432-591-652. For other enquiries, phone 0407-037-091.
