Reviews
'A valuable collection that throws new light on how new media technologies are interacting with the practices of Christian music-making, music-leadership and music-participation in congregational settings. It provides significant insights also into how these wider processes of cultural mediation taken up in congregational music are provoking a wider re-thinking and re-formation of Christian communities, beliefs and identity.' Peter Horsfield, RMIT University, Australia 'Huge changes have occurred in Christian worship in the last fifty years. In the study of new and contemporary forms of worship, where would we be without the musicologists? Offering penetrating studies of contemporary changes, this volume is another welcome addition contributing to the study of Christian worship.' Lester Ruth, Duke University, USA
