A service from the Chapel of St John's College, Cambridge, to celebrate the new Willis/Harrison organ, which is central to the building's music and worship. The service includes music and readings which reflect the theme that Christians are called to be instruments of praise, people who are made for song, and who embody the love of God in their lives. The College choir leads the congregation in the hymns 'Good Christians, all, rejoice and sing' and 'When in our music God is glorified'.
