Faith leaders including the Archbishop of Canterbury and Cardinal Vincent Nichols have welcomed a new report which calls for better support for asylum seekers. It comes from a commission set up to consider how refugees might be helped to integrate into society more easily. It makes a series of recommendations and suggests that the current system creates barriers to asylum seekers who want to quickly make good use of their existing skills and qualifications. The government says it's committed to ensuring refugees can take positive steps towards integration as they rebuild their lives in the UK.It's 300 years since J S Bach's setting of the Passion narrative from St John's gospel was first performed on Good Friday at the St Nicholas Church in Leipzig. This week many of the UK's cathedrals and churches will be marking the anniversary by performing it. The composer, conductor and singer, Bob Chilcott celebrates the work and reflects on what is one of the most revered of all musical settings of the Passion. Does religious education at school help young people when they get a job? Lord Karan Bilimoria, a former president of the CBI, thinks it can. He believes RE helps young people to navigate the complexity of modern belief and the diversity of worldviews in the UK today. The businessman, who is from the Zoroastrian tradition, has launched a campaign urging employers to support higher standards in religious education. We hear from Lord Bilimoria, and also from the National Secular Society who feel there are better ways to equip young people for the workforce.Presenter: Edward Stourton Producers: Jonathan Hallewell and Alexa Good Editor: Dan Tierney

Our guest today is one of the world's most widely performed contemporary composers and arrangers, as well as an acclaimed choral conductor. Born in 1955, singing as a choir-boy in his local church ignited a musical spark in Bob Chilcott. Since then, choral music has been at the heart of his life: a chorister, then a choral scholar in the choir of King's College, Cambridge; a member of the British vocal group The King's Singers; and, since 1997, a full-time, prolific composer, arranger and conductor. His works span genres and include a large sacred output, performed and recorded globally. For many, his name is synonymous with Christmas, having written and arranged reams of Carols, including editions of the choral singer's go-to compilations, Carols for Choirs. As a conductor, he holds the position of Guest Principal Conductor of the BBC Singers, and directs choirs of all ages and abilities across the world. Bob Chilcott is committed to sharing choral singing as a vehicle for humanity.

"It gave me some amazing opportunities, just that one phone call, that one chance. For my grad students, that's one of the things that I really try to model and mentor and teach them: you can be a fantastic musician, but if you aren't one that seizes the moment or takes the initiative, it makes a difference."John Dickson is Professor Emeritus and former Director of Choral Studies at Louisiana State University's School of Music.  Holding the School of Music's first Chair as the Edward G. and Catherine M.

S.  For three decades his choirs have been featured at conventions of the ACDA, ABCD, Texas Music Educators Association, and the National Collegiate Choral Organization.Appointed as a Visiting Fellow of Wolfson College, Cambridge University in 1992, Dr. Dickson sang with Sir David Willcocks and The Bach Choir; a second post-doctoral fellowship in 1998 allowed him to serve as principal rehearsal conductor under musical director David Hill.  For his summer conducting institutes Dr. Dickson has co-directed with British friends and colleagues Stephen Cleobury, David Hill and Bob Chilcott.  He is the Founding Director of the C.

"O' Holy Night, the stars are brightly shining..." and so begins the gentle carol of reflection that has touched the lives of listeners around the world. For The Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu, it's the carol that lifted his spirits as he lay in a London hospital battling pneumonia. It is also the hymn that inspired a fellow patient to find faith. In Philadelphia it is the song that outreach worker Asteria Vives sang when she took Christmas to the homeless, whilst for singer and songwriter Katie Melua it's the carol that awoke her love of music as an 8 year old child in Belfast. And for Tymara Walker it's the Christmas family favourite which went viral when she sang it on a Washington subway, eventually reaching a worldwide audience of over 5 million.

Church musicians, this is the episode you have been waiting for. One of the most respected directors in the field, Terry Price talks with Ryan about the unique challenges of directing a church choir. This episode is packed with wisdom and actionable advice, but the one about the label maker...we’ll just say that if you don’t already keep one in your choir room, you’ll run out to buy one as soon as this episode is over. Listen Highlight to Tweet:         “Church music is a functional art. It has a purpose” - Terry Price “If you want quality singers, you need to do quality music.” - Terry Price Show Notes: Mr. Price has spent some time as a public school choir teacher, some time with the Dallas Symphony Chorus, but most of his career has been spent as a choir director in a christian church. What’s special about church choirs... Church choirs are unique because they are primarily amateur sings; they are there out of love. They want to be better singers. Terry’s job is to find creative ways to help them to be better. Church music has a purpose; it is not music for music’s sake. A church choir allows us to gather weekly with people we care about and read and sing sacred poetry and scripture; this uniquely beautiful opportunity is not common for non-choir members. Church choirs perform most often, with the least rehearsal time. And there’s a Sunday every week! At the times we need our best singers the most (Christmas and Easter), they are most likely to be absent. Churches are about the business of serving people in a lot of different ways. A great music program can bring people into the life of the church, strengthening it in many ways. Keep in mind... Programming a variety of quality music will be satisfying to your singers and congregation. But both are important: quality, and variety. If you are doing contemporary music in a worship service, make sure you are doing it very, very well, otherwise it won’t compare favorably to the music people normally consume throughout their week. In rehearsal… Warm ups are important! Listen to John Yarrington’s episodes. Make warm ups specific to the music you will be working on in rehearsal. Talk less, sing more Don’t assume people know what you are talking about, especially when using music terms. Be encouraging. You don’t know what kind of day your singers had when they came into rehearsal. When you are learning, learn...when you are practicing, practice...and when you are performing, perform. Keep things moving, and keep things light. Write down jokes if you can’t remember them...it gives singers a momentary mental break and helps them refocus. Always have new music in your folder. Again...variety is key! Start rehearsal with an easy win, so they can begin with a success. Don’t tailor your rehearsal to the weakest singer. You don’t want them to determine your rehearsal techniques. But you do want to bring them along with you. Find a great singer who can sit near and mentor them. There is no need to embarrass someone by calling them out individually; address sections together. Choir members do not get to correct each other. That is the director’s job alone. Planned social events and parties are important. Let them know they are valued… Terry made sure there were always a few extra folders prepared each week. If someone new came to rehearsal, a volunteer would use the label maker so they could hand them a folder with their name already on it, telling them they were already a welcomed choir member before they even sang a note. A “choir buddy” sits with them during rehearsal. Specific gifts to choir members for every 5 years of service. There needs to be a specific dream ahead of you at all times. The choir should always be working towards some goal, milestone, or achievement for inspiration. Bio: Terry Price has served at some of the largest mainline churches in the US. Each of the choirs experienced considerable growth under his leadership while he instilled musical excellence among the singers. He directed the Christmas Eve celebrations in Bethlehem and has conducted at major church music festivals in the Vatican and across the UK and Europe. He has worked closely with such conductors as John Rutter, Sir David Willcocks, Bob Chilcott, Paul Leddington Wright, Mack Wilberg and Ryan Murphy. He served as Conductor of the Dallas Symphony Chorus ad interim for 2 years. He was awarded the Texas ChoirMaster Award by the Texas Choral Directors Association, and was the first church musician to be so honored. He was involved in 4 recording projects that were nominated for Grammy Awards.

Say Leipzig and classical music listeners may think of old, blue-chip institutions like the St. Thomas Boys Choir, the Gewandhaus Orchestra or the Bach-Archiv, which carries on the legacy of the German city’s most famous composer. Most may not think of a young a capella quintet that covers Irish airs and folk songs, jazz tunes and pop hits by Michael Jackson, Sting and Freddie Mercury. But the Leipzig-based Calmus Ensemble has developed such versatility, with a repertoire that also reaches back to composers from Purcell and Bach to Mendelssohn and Debussy. “The pop songs today have the same role as the madrigals centuries ago,” Ludwig Böhme, the ensemble's baritone told host Jeff Spurgeon (listen to the full interview and performance above). Formed in 1999 by six male graduates of the Thomas Church Choir School, the group's personnel shifted early on and the gleaming soprano voice of Anja Lipfert was added in 2001 (the lineup today also includes countertenor Sebastian Krause, tenor Tobias Pöche and bass Joe Roesler). Calmus's members cite the King's Singers as a formative influence, and some critics have drawn (perhaps more unusual) comparisons to mixed-voice a cappella groups like the Swingle Singers. Calmus stopped by the WQXR Café a day after their debut at the Metropolitan Museum of Art to perform a holiday-focused program. They began with "Nova Nova," an ancient song given a modern twist in an arrangement by choral singer and composer Bob Chilcott. The Calmus musicians carry a distinctly German identity and they don't avoid the music of their hometown composers. But baritone Böhme insists that versatility is the group's ultimate calling card. "Our classical background is clear," he said. "When we sing pop arrangements we don't sound like pop singers. Everybody will hear our classical education. We always love the variety. There are many possibilities of where we can sing." The Calmus musicians showed their cheekier side with a performance of "Jingle Bells." In Böhme's arrangement, it is combined with "Suesser die Glocken nie klingen" ("Sweeter the Bells Never Sound"),a German carol from the 1850s.

The words of one of our most loved hymns, Dear Lord and Father of Mankind, were taken from the last six verses of John Greenleaf Whittier's poem, The Brewing of Soma, an attack on ostentatious and overt religious practise. But it wasn't until over fifty years later, that a school master at Repton in Derbyshire had the inspiration to pair it with a tune by Sir Hubert Parry, thus confirming it as a favourite for school assemblies, funerals and weddings. The current Director of Music at Repton, John Bowley, explains how this happened, while composer and conductor Bob Chilcott explains why this was a musical mariage made in heaven. We hear from those for who whom the hymn has special significance, including the MP from Gloucester, Richard Graham; when briefly imprisoned in a Libyan gaol in 1978 he found enormous comfort in the words and tune. Pipe Major Ross Munro remembers recording the piece in the swelting heat of Basra with members of the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards and film director Joe Wright recalls how the inclusion of this hymn was central to the power of his famous scene depicting the evacuation of Dunkirk in his film, Atonement. Producer: Lucy Lunt.
