Thank you Bruce, that is very sudden and sad news indeed.

I join Edwin in thanking you, Bruce, for this sad news. Temperley was the intellectual giant upon whose shoulders we all stand, and this is a great loss for those who love the music of the English parish church and its American descendants.

Thank you, Bruce, for sharing this. I share your grief: Temperley’s scholarship gave us the tools and perspective we still lean on, and his generosity brought so many into the work. We’ll honor him by continuing to sing, edit, and teach the repertory he illuminated—may his memory be a blessing to all who love this music.

Et puisque beaucoup d’entre nous se réuniront bientôt pour un hommage, si tu cherches une tenue sobre et élégante, tu peux parcourir des robes adaptées à une cérémonie—coupes simples, couleurs discrètes, matières qui tombent bien.
