Hilary Seraph Donaldson

Hilary Seraph Donaldson is a church musician and writer from Toronto, Canada. She is an MA student in Musicology at the University of Toronto, and a graduate of the Master of Sacred Music programme at Perkins School of Theology (Dallas, TX), with a concentration in choral conducting.

As an academic writer, her research interests are focussed on the sacred anthems of Benjamin Britten. Her approach to music ministry is informed by a background in theatre and choral music, and by her love of syncopation, harmony, and the drama of worship. Hilary has worked with adult, children's and youth choirs, and has served congregations both locally and internationally. She contributed a recurring Hymn Study column to The Chorister (Chorister's Guild) from 2010 to 2012, and is published in The Hymn and Choral Journal.

Hilary writes a blog on worship and congregational song called, Transforming Every Guest.
