Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hymn-Tunes and Their Story Throughout the book the word psalmody is used in reference to music, 'hymn being applied to words only. It has been found necessary sometimes to repeat certain facts and statements with a view to making each chapter complete in itself as far as possible. One difficulty that confronts the would-be student of psalmody is to discover the where abouts of some of the rarer psalters and collections. I have given a list of the unique works referred to in this volume, with the locality of each, and trust it will be found useful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hymn-Tunes and Their Story Considering the general popularity of hymn-tunes, and also the fact that they provide a form of music which all can understand and in which all can take a part, it is rather remarkable that no attempt has yet been made to give some account of their history in a connected narrative. A great deal of work has been done in this direction by various diligent students, entailing a vast amount of original work and research, and it seems a great pity that the results of their labours should be hidden away in magazines and papers extending over a considerable number of years, and many of which are now inaccessible. The numerous inquiries that appear from time to time in the various newspapers and periodicals seem to show that a widespread interest is taken in the history of our tunes, and it is hoped that this first attempt to provide material for such a history will prove acceptable.

Download or read book The History and Use of Hymns and Hymn Tunes written by David Riddle Breed and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History and Use of Hymns and Hymn-Tunes This book is the outgrowth of my own needs, as a teacher of practical theology. I desired a text-book from which my students might obtain a comprehensive knowledge of the history and use of sacred song, without being burdened with those technical details which a beginner has neither the time to master nor the ability to understand. I also desired a book in which the study of hymns and of tunes was combined. No such book was at hand, and for several years I was compelled to refer my classes to various authors, some in hymnology, others in church music; supplementing their studies with explanatory lectures. This, however, became more and more unsatisfactory, and I therefore determined to supply my own needs. In so doing I hoped to supply also the needs of others and to furnish many besides theological students with an acceptable and useful guide to a large and increasingly interesting subject. I have therefore included extended notice only of authors and composers of the first rank, or whose work bears some vital relation to the development of the hymn or of the hymn-tune. The volume is intended to be first of all a text-book, though I hope it may serve other useful purposes and be greatly blessed of Him whose praises we sing to those who would sing them "in a nobler, sweeter song."
