Lord for the Years: A tribute to Timothy Dudley-Smith

A celebration of the life and work of hymnwriter, Bishop Timothy Dudley-Smith, with new recordings of his hymns and reflections from friends and family. Led by Pam Rhodes.

In August 2024 one of the 20th Century's most prolific hymnwriters died. Bishop Timothy Dudley-Smith spent his life composing hundreds of hymns and poems, many of which have become firm favourites. In this celebration of his life and work, led by Pam Rhodes, we hear from his family, friends and collaborators.

The tribute features new recordings from The Diocese of Manchester Choral Scholars, directed by Andrew Earis and accompanied by Elin Rees, as well as recordings from All Souls Choir and Orchestra directed by Noël Tredinnick.
