How Christianity shaped Western Music with Sir James MacMillan | Ep31

50 min8 augusti 2025

How did the first Christians sing their prayers? What traditions did they draw on? And how do we sing our prayers today?


Sir James MacMillan is one of today’s most successful composers and performs internationally as a conductor. In this podcast, we explore how his Scottish heritage and Catholic faith inform his work as a composer and the contribution he has made to Church music.


Sir James explains how the Christian faith shaped Western Music as a whole and how the Jewish chant of Jesus' day went on to develop the Church's tradition of Gregorian Chant.
