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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this expansive cultural history, Andrew Gant traces English sacred music from the Latin chant of late antiquity to the great proliferation and diversification of styles seen in contemporary repertoires. The book explores church music in its great variety of forms and performance contexts: cathedral music and music performed at small country parishes, hymns sung in church and at gatherings, all the way up to today’s mixture and hybridization of the traditional and contemporary styles. Most of all, it illuminates how political battles and sweeping changes in worship affected the church music profession; how musicians, clergy, and worshipers responded; and how the repertory was reinvented many times over as a result. This work was first brought out by Profile Books in 2015. The author has contributed a new preface for our edition, offering reflections on English church music in its American contexts.

Download or read book Roman Catholic Church Music in England 1791 1914 A Handmaid of the Liturgy written by Dr T E Muir and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-01-28 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roman Catholic church music in England served the needs of a vigorous, vibrant and multi-faceted community that grew from about 70,000 to 1.7 million people during the long nineteenth century. Contemporary literature of all kinds abounds, along with numerous collections of sheet music, some running to hundreds, occasionally even thousands, of separate pieces, many of which have since been forgotten. Apart from compositions in the latest Classical Viennese styles and their successors, much of the music performed constituted a revival or imitation of older musical genres, especially plainchant and Renaissance Polyphony. Furthermore, many pieces that had originally been intended to be performed by professional musicians for the benefit of privileged royal, aristocratic or high ecclesiastical elites were repackaged for rendition by amateurs before largely working or lower middle class congregations, many of them Irish. However, outside Catholic circles, little attention has been paid to this subject. Consequently, the achievements and widespread popularity of many composers (such as Joseph Egbert Turner, Henry George Nixon or John Richardson) within the English Catholic community have passed largely unnoticed. Worse still, much of the evidence is rapidly disappearing, partly because it no longer seems relevant to the needs of the modern Catholic Church in England. This book provides a framework of the main aspects of Catholic church music in this period, showing how and why it developed in the way it did. Dr Muir sets the music in its historical, liturgical and legal context, pointing to the ways in which the music itself can be used as evidence to throw light on the changing character of English Catholicism. As a result the book will appeal not only to scholars and students working in the field, but also to church musicians, liturgists, historians, ecclesiastics and other interested Catholic and non-Catholic parties.
