Work in the Church of Melanesia (Solomon Islands)
(click to enlarge the images)
As part of my work, I have visited the Anglican Church of the Province of Melanesia twice .
the first time was to record music at fourteen villages on four of the Solomon Islands, and the
second was to hold music workshops in three of the dioceses of that church. A two CD set is
in progress and will be published soon by the Episcopal Church, the first recording in a series of
global Anglican song. The second will be of village music from southern South India.
