I grew up around a lot of church musicians.
I love Evensong. There's something sad and essentially English about it.
I grew up singing in church as a little boy.
The singing of hymns and the rendition of selections from the great sacred oratorios by ward choirs all enhance the spirit of worship.
Some of the stuff I'm writing is almost like hymns, some of my first singing and choral experiences were in church, the Church of Christ in Hicksville.
The most consistent musical experience I had growing up was church music.
So many great singers we know have come from the church.
I sang with Anita Bryant in the Southern Baptist churches.
