GUEST,George Frampton Sankey and Moody hymns (22) RE: Sankey and Moody hymns 28 Dec 16


The Sankey hymns were popular in East Coast (GB) fishing towns/villages as well as in Primitive Methodist churches in mining communities.

The Filey. Marske. Seahouses and Cullercoats fisher choirs certainly included them in their repertoires. Two Sankey hymns also 'double' as   Dungworth Christmas carols.

The Cullercoats choir last performed their services of song comprising Sankey hymns as late as 1966. I'm researching the Cullercoats tradition, and looking to revive the choir on a secular-ish basis if possible. Any takers in the Newcastle area?
