Download or read book Music in the Church Classic Reprint written by George Wauchope Stewart and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Music in the Church The subject Of our study is Music in the Church, i.e. Music subject to the influence and employed in the service Of religion. Like all the other arts, music has been brought into close association with religion, and has not only been able to render valuable aid to the Church in her worship, but has itself been enormously benefited and enriched by the new Spirit breathed into it by that association. It was indeed the demands made by the Church upon the art that awakened it from the lethargy in which it lay, and urged it forward to develop its resources. The early history Of music, once it attained the dignity Of an art worthy to have its history recorded, is almost entirely a history of sacred music. But the association of music with religion is not merely a matter Of past history. TO the present day that association continues with most beneficial results both to the Church and to the art of music. True, with the advance Of the art it was able to strike out new forms and to develop along other lines. Sacred music, instead Of being the whole of the art, is now only one branch Of it. But it is a branch of the utmost importance. The art would be incalculably the poorer were the musical wealth which it has poured into the treasury Of the Church not credited to it. And on the other hand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Church Music He now believes that he sees his way clearly with regard to some of the matters he has to treat upon he is still puzzled with regard to others. If his book, with all its failings, gives pause to thought and promotes discussion, and if, with God's blessing, such thought and discussion should end in the further improvement of the music of our parish churches, whether according to the lines laid down here or otherwise, he will be indeed grateful that he has been allowed to make thus his humble contribution to the furtherance of the greater glory of God.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hints Concerning Church Music, the Liturgy and Kindred Subjects The thoughts, so briefly and imperfectly set forth in the pages following, were chiefly conceived in order to a series of letters to the late and lamented Dr. Alexander Young. This design having been suddenly frustrated, they were next partly published in the columns of the Evening Transcript; but finding that the subject was outgrowing the space usually allotted to such articles, and by the solicitation of gentlemen who desired that it should be presented in a more substantial manner, it was decided to give it in this form.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Church Music, Vol. 3: January, 1908 The sun came out and looked about And said: We'll have some rain. The youth who excogitated the ending lines of the quatrain informed me afterwards that his professor appeared to be displeased at the ingenious supple ment Offered. Alas! Who can foretell the mind of a professor? But I am strongly tempted to meet the wishes of the writer who desiderates in our English literature an Ode to the Organist, and to write such an ode. In deed, I will write two odes - one serious and one satiric - and I will ask him (and any reader who may honor my muse by a perusal of my verses) to choose which ever one may please him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Church Music, Vol. 1: June, 1906 A change of considerable importance is found in the Ger man tradition Of the plainchant. In the earliest staff nota tion codices Of German origin we find a frequent use of the minor third a - c, where codices of other countries have the second a - b-flat or a - b. Wagner has no doubt that the ver sion of the non - German codices is the original, but thinks that the change is older than the Oldest staff notation mss. He is of opinion that the reason for the change is to be found in the difficulty that attaches to the semitone. Rie mann, in the work quoted above, sees in these things rem nants of the pentatonic scale, of which traces are to b found in many other phrases Of plainchant, such as the in tonation of the per omnia before the Preface. Radically the two views are identical. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Church Music: A Book for Pastors and People They are performing the act of devotion, which, it is understood, is to be engaged in by other people - inasmuch as the music is such as to absorb, for itself alone, their entire attention. Sharps and accidentals, generally, are imminent, and must be sharp-ly looked after. One of the basses sees an ominous flat coming, which he is troubled in mind about. Perhaps he secretly resolves to ignore it altogether: he can overleap it, and fairly reach the terra firma of the note beyond. A tenor singer sees a passage in the prospect that lies just in his voice upon this he is preparing to display himself, and make the auditors for the moment aware that there is a tenor singer in the choir. A contralto is regarding with trepidation a duet ap preaching, which she is to sing alone with the first so prano.

This book was released on 2017-05-16 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Parish Choir, or Church Music Book, 1849, Vol. 3 In other words, the originators of the Parish Choir did not desire to introduce fine, enchanting, dramatic music, such as might be executed by professionals from the concert-room or theatre, who draw their curtain, sing their florid anthem, and retire from the church as soon as their performance is over; nor yet to fill the churches with irreverent crowds of listeners. Their desire was to see the churches filled with devout crowds of worshippers, and to provide and make popular 3. System of ecclesiastical music, such as the humblest could join in, while it should be calculated, not for the mere amusement of man, but for the worship of God. This then, in short, was our object to find out, publish, popularize, explain, and recommend the adoption of that system of music, which should be most suited to the genius of the. English Prayer Book, and most in accordance with the entire system of the Reformed English Church. And as on the very face of the Prayer Book it is evident that our service is not a mere vicarious intercession to be performed by priest, or by priest and parish-clerk, or quire; that the people are not meant to sit as silent listeners, but themselves to join vocally, openly, and audibly, or even loudly in the devotions of the Church, so it is evident that no system of ecclesiastical music can be in accordance with the genius of the English Church, which does not recognize this duty and this right of the laity throughout the entire service; and which does not provide means whereby their united audible worship may be celebrated with one voice, with decency and reverence.
