Download or read book Church Music in America 1620 2000 written by John Ogasapian and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of American church music is a particularly fascinating and challenging subject, if for no other reason than because of the variety of diverse religious groups that have immigrated and movements that have sprung up in American. Indeed, for the first time in modern history-possibly the only time since the rule of medieval Iberia under the Moors-different faiths have co-existed here with a measure of peace- sometimes ill-humored, occasionally hostile, but more often amicable or at least tolerant-influencing and even weaving their traditions into the fabric of one another's worship practices even as they competed for converts in the free market of American religion. This overview traces the musical practices of several of those groups from their arrival on these shores up to the present, and the way in which those practices and traditions influenced each other, leading to the diverse and multi-hued pattern that is American church music at the beginning of the twenty-first century. The tone is non-technical; there are no musical examples, and the musical descriptions are clear and concise. In short, it is a book for interested laymen as well as professional church musicians, for pastors and seminarians as well as students of American religious culture and its history.

Book excerpt: Music has been at the heart of Christian worship since the beginning, and this lavishly illustrated and wonderfully written volume fully surveys the many centuries of creative Christian musical experimentation. From its roots in Jewish and Hellenistic music, through the rich tapestry of medieval chant to the full flowering of Christian music in the centuries after the Reformation and the many musical expressions of a now-global Christianity, Wilson-Dickson conveys 'a glimpse of the fecundity of imagination with which humanity has responded to the creator God.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Church Music in America: Comprising Its History and Its Peculiarities at Different Periods, With Cursory Remarks on Its Legitimate Use and Its Abuse The principal design of the following pages is to give a plain, simple and concise account of Sacred Music in America, for the last eighty years. We have waited long, with the ardent desire that some one with ample means and skilful pen might do well what we are sensible we have done imperfectly. But, having waited this long in vain, and being admonished by age and other circumstance that what we do must be done quickly, and that, unless accomplished by some one soon, the history must forever remain a mere matter of hearsay, as none will be left to perform the task, or to "speak that they do know, and testify that they have seen," we have been constrained, in view of these considerations, and the solicitude of friends, to undertake so important and in many respects difficult a task. When we find elaborate and well-digested histories of almost every other important subject touching the past, others as well as ourselves may well be surprised that a narrative of this kind has not long ere this been presented to the public; as it is a subject so intimately connected with the prosperity of Zion. The Rev. W. Burton, a friend of education and humanity, a few years since wrote a history of the "Village School as it was;" and although it purports to be the picture of a single school, we presume the description will be found to delineate well the history of most schools in past times.

Download or read book The Sound of Light written by Don Cusic and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2002 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sound of Light is a sweeping overview of the history of gospel music. Powerful and incisive, it traces contemporary Christianity and Christian music to the 16th century and the Protestant Reformation after examining music in the Bible and early church music. From the psalms of the early Puritans through the hymns of human composure of Isaac Watts and the social activism of the Wesleys, gospel music was established in 18th century America. With the camp meeting songs of the Kentucky Revival, the spirituals that came from the slave culture, and the hymns from the great revival after the Civil War, gospel music advanced through the 19th century. The 20th century brought recording technology and electronic media to the table. Gospel music has developed with Christian revivals and the history of American gospel music is the history of Christianity in America. Gospel music reflects the American spirit of freedom and the free market as a Christian culture emerges in the 20th century, providing a spiritual as well as economic foundation. The Sound of Light presents gospel music as part of the history of contemporary Christianity. It is a work broad in scope that defines a music essential to understanding American culture as well as American music in the 20th century. Don Cusic is the author of ten books, including the biography Eddy Arnold: I'll Hold You in My Heart and an encyclopedia of cowboys, Cowboys and the Wild West: An A-Z Guide from the Chisholm Trail to the Silver Screen. He joined the faculty at Middle Tennessee State University in 1982, teaching courses in the music business. He earned a Masters and Doctorate in Literature from MTSU. Since August of 1994, Cusic has been Professor of Music Business at Belmont University.
