Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Solidly based on the scientific research of scholars, but free from needless professional technicalities, this volume treats both the liturgical text of church services and the words of the hymns together with the music that has grown up with them as parts of an indivisible whole attuned to the worship of God. The lecture series given by Canon Douglas at the invitation of the Committee of the Hale Foundation at the Seabury-Western Theological Seminary has served as the basis for the extensive synthesis which the author has accomplished in this volume. In preparing the work he has had in mind primarily the needs of Clergy, Seminarians and Organists, as well as interested laymen, and it is his purpose to teach as clearly and concisely as possible the underlying principles of musical worship, too often forgotten or never acquired. His work first traces the relationship between worship and music from the beginning of the Christian Church to the present time. The author has not attempted to give a detailed history of the art of music, but has followed the development of Christian liturgical worship and the Christian Hymns with the music that expressed them in significant periods of Church History. He then arrives at practical and intelligent conclusions regarding the present musical worship of the Church and promulgates, and illustrates the principles that should govern the composition, the choice, and the performance of liturgical Church Music today." -- BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Church Music and Protestantism in Post Reformation England written by Dr Jonathan Willis and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Church Music and Protestantism in Post-Reformation England' breaks new ground in the religious history of Elizabethan England, through a closely focused study of the relationship between the practice of religious music and the complex process of Protestant identity formation. Hearing was of vital importance in the early modern period, and music was one of the most prominent, powerful and emotive elements of religious worship. But in large part, traditional historical narratives of the English Reformation have been distinctly tone deaf. Recent scholarship has begun to take increasing notice of some elements of Reformed musical practice, such as the congregational singing of psalms in meter. This book marks a significant advance in that area, combining an understanding of theory as expressed in contemporary religious and musical discourse, with a detailed study of the practice of church music in key sites of religious worship. Divided into three sections - 'Discourses', 'Sites', and 'Identities' - the book begins with an exploration of the classical and religious discourses which underpinned sixteenth-century understandings of music, and its use in religious worship. It then moves on to an investigation of the actual practice of church music in parish and cathedral churches, before shifting its attention to the people of Elizabethan England, and the ways in which music both served and shaped the difficult process of Protestantisation. Through an exploration of these issues, and by reintegrating music back into the Elizabethan church, we gain an expanded and enriched understanding of the complex evolution of religious identities, and of what it actually meant to be Protestant in post-Reformation England.
Download or read book Ancient Christian Worship written by Andrew B. McGowan and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Important Study on the Worship of the Early Church This introduction to the origins of Christian worship illuminates the importance of ancient liturgical patterns for contemporary Christian practice. Andrew McGowan takes a fresh approach to understanding how Christians came to worship in the distinctive forms still familiar today. Deftly and expertly processing the bewildering complexity of the ancient sources into lucid, fluent exposition, he sets aside common misperceptions to explore the roots of Christian ritual practices--including the Eucharist, baptism, communal prayer, preaching, Scripture reading, and music--in their earliest recoverable settings.

Download or read book Ancient Future Worship Ancient Future written by Robert E. Webber and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the many models of worship available, choosing a style to worship God can be a bit overwhelming. Is it better to go with traditional or contemporary models? Christians may find themselves asking how early believers worshiped and whether they can provide insight into how we should praise God today. Rooted in historical models and patristic church studies, Ancient-Future Worship examines how early Christian worship models can be applied to the postmodern church. Pastors and church leaders, as well as younger evangelical and emerging church groups, will find this last book in the respected Ancient-Future series an invaluable resource for authentic worship.
