Book excerpt: "Written to fill the need for a truly comprehensive text on hymnody, the Dr. Reynolds' book offers a complete course in the subject. Unlike other textbooks on hymnody, all of which confine themselves to a treatment of tunes or texts, this provides a well-balanced treatment of both. It also provides a concise but complete history of hymnody, tracing and evaluating it from earliest beginnings to present-day usage. A unique section contains 160 hymns and tunes compiled from the hymnals of seven major Protestant denominations. Ordinarily, classroom study of so large and diverse a collection would involve the use of at least a dozen hymnals. Designed specifically as a basic text in hymnody courses offered by seminaries and colleges, this versatile book eliminates the need for innumerable supplementary texts."--Dust jacket.

The repertory of the twentieth century, and language issues are discussed. Practical elements of hymnody are covered, while the final chapter lists writings about individual hymn writers and other influential persons in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sing to the Lord is a chronological survey of Christian hymnody from its origin in biblical times to the present -- a story rich in faith, emotion, and drama. Stephen W. Nance here combines chronological history with discussions of the major figures in the history of hymnody: Ambrose of Milan, Martin Luther, John Calvin, Isaac Watts Charles Wesley, and others. He gives special attention to the Reformation, English hymnody of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, hymnody in colonial America, the development of American folk hymnody from both the African-American and white rural traditions, the growth of the nineteenth-century gospel hymn from its roots in frontier revivalism, and twentieth-century byronic trends in great Britain and the United States. A final chapter exemplifies the impact one state can have on national trends using Pennsylvania as a case study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no part of the general field of Christian hymnology so baffling to the student or so full of difficulties as the one under consideration in this paper. Many accounts of the subject are in existence but are far from conclusive. This is due, first of all, to the unexpected scarcity of original sources. When one views the rise of Christianity from its inception to the period of the Council of Nicaea, 325, its numerical growth from a handful of original adherents to millions of followers at the time of the Edict of Milan, 313, its literary development from early scattered records to the works of the great Greek and Latin fathers, one cannot help inquiring, “What has become of their hymns?” Aeterna Press

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baptists have a long and rich heritage of congregational song. The hymns Baptists have sung and the books from which they have sung them have been shaping forces for Baptist theology, worship, and piety. Baptist authors and composers have provided songs that have made an impact not only among Baptists in America but also across denominational and geographic lines. Congregational singing continues to be a key component of Baptist worship in the twenty-first century. Beginning with an overview of the British background, this book is a survey of the history of Baptist hymnody in America from Baptist beginnings in the New World to the present. Its intent is to help the reader better understand the background against which current Baptist congregational song practices operate. Unlike earlier writings on the subject, this book provides both comprehensive coverage and a continuous narrative. It gives thorough attention to the major Baptist bodies in America as well as calling attention to the contributions of significant smaller groups. The British Baptist background is dealt with in an introductory section. The book also includes many texts and tunes as illustrations of the topics being discussed and focuses on some of the contributions of Baptist authors and composers to the repertory of congregational song.
