A rare contemporary hymnist of these is the novelist Shena Mackay, author of novels with beautifully evocative titles, such as Redhill Rococo and Dreams of Dead Women's Handbags. |
We also look at more familiar stories from a different angle, such as hymnist Ann Griffiths' life story. |
He was no hymnist, though he did now and then venture into sacred metre. |
The greatest Lutheran hymnist of the seventeenth century, and perhaps of all time, was Paul Gerhardt. |
James Montgomery, the noted English hymnist, was a member of the Moravian communion. |
Next to Gerhardt, there is no German hymnist whose name is so frequently found in hymn-books today as that of Schmolck. |
