Conversations On The Choral Service: Being An Examination Of Popular Prejudices Against Church Music (1853) by Robert Druitt is a book that delves into the topic of church music and its place in worship.

It offers insights into the history and development of church music, as well as the theological and practical considerations that must be taken into account when incorporating music into worship.Overall, Conversations On The Choral Service is a thought-provoking and informative read for anyone interested in the role of music in worship, and is particularly relevant for those involved in church leadership and music ministry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
