The Church Music Society affirms the importance of music in worship and of the effective use of music appropriate to its proper liturgical use. It strives always to sustain the Church's wonderful musical heritage. Publications range from modern editions of well-known (but sometimes neglected) items to music by living composers designed specifically for small congregations to sing and value.
