There are Canadian chapters in both the east and the west. Articles focus on historical and recently-composed hymns, tunes and texts, composers and authors, performance practice, and liturgical use of hymns. This excellent resource covers a broad range of topics. Although scholarly in content, articles are written in a straightforward and accessible style. This is the official journal of the Presbyterian Association of Musicians.
Members receive the journal as a benefit of membership.
The journal seeks to develop an understanding of Reformed poetry, corporate worship, and the role of the musician in the life of the church. There are several articles focussing on church music in each issue. Authors represent a variety of denominational traditions and address concerns extending beyond the Presbyterian communion. This journal has Roman Catholic roots, although it is by no means denominational. Articles address a broad range of issues related to the music of liturgical worship.
