1/ Have you ever suspected you had a shear zone hidden in poly-deformed metamorphic rocks but could not prove it? A brief thread showing how you can find clues from #geology, RSCM #thermometry, #metamorphic #petrology, and #zircon dating and an example from the Sanbagawa belt of Japan!

Today is #InternationalOrganDay, so what better way to have spent it than at the RSCM Conference in Salisbury, followed by Evensong at @salisburycathedral.bsky.social (Stanford in C and Monteverdi Cantate Domino) and pub.
Great to meet so many people enthused and inspired by choral music.

Good to see the Church Times considers the launch of the RSCM Young Voices Toolkit to be front-page news. I agree! Let’s get more children everywhere leading church #music.

4/ We need to increase the resolution of RSCM thermometry! We collected about 30 samples over a km long natural transect (Sarutagawa river) and found that there is a continuous increase in metamorphic temperature over a short distance (just 600 m) from the chl to the grt and ab zone.

Hymn choosing for March. Looks at readings. Looks at RSCM hymn recommendations: Jesus is Lord’ is an obvious choice. Good last hymn. Thinks about it. Aargh! ‘Praise him with Alleluias!’ - in Lent! Scratch that then… #CofEPeeps

Question. What are the blue medals the Canterbury clergy are wearing? Presumably not their RSCM medals.

✝️⚓ Loved this morning's Psalm chant on the Daily Prayer app. I keep meaning to contact the Digital Team to see if I can get the music. Surely RSCM could have published a "Music from Daily Prayer" downloadable resource for choirs by now? Niche but entirely doable by the glory of pdf.

3/ Nevertheless, RSCM already proved itself to be a valuable tool to untangle this ball of threads. Kouketsu et al. (2020) showed that there is a sudden jump in metamorphic temperature, highlighting a discontinuity in the metamorphic zones formed during subduction (Fig. b). What's its meaning?

From the 2024 RSCM Winterfest in Houston. Rheinberger Mass for Treble voices. Choir made up of kids from all over the Gulf coast region. A true joy.

The decline in young people singing in church choirs has been steep. But it’s not irreversible. With the inspiring initiative that the RSCM is about to launch, more of us will feel confident to do our bit to turn the tide. If not us, who? If not now, when? www.churchtimes.co.uk/articles/202...

Interesting choice of which to transfer there..!
It's also Music Sunday next week, but the RSCM resources are all about how to use it to complement Trinity Sunday rather than compete or replace it.

Same for me on that last bit. Though my semi-professional RSCM choir in the ‘90s was the first place I first understood systemic sexism. The girls’ choir was paid way less, got the “less good” performance opportunities, etc.

I started singing as a boy treble in my local parish church of St John's Knaresborough in North Yorkshire.
I was also heavily involved in the RSCM Northern Cathedral Singers, and my parents spent many Saturdays taking me to sing in cathedrals all over the north of England.
