This service, composed for Worcester Cathedral, was written in January 1887. This original version was published in 1908 and appears in English Church Music, Volume 2 (OUP). It was considerably revised and expanded in March 1892 by Ivor Atkins, then Organist of Hereford Cathedral, later Blair's successor at Worcester Cathedral. The revised version was published in 1933, after Blair's death, and is the version more frequently heard today. The Files below are for the original version; if you wish to hear the revised, Atkins, one, then you can find it here
