Book Synopsis Companion to Baptist Hymnal by : William Jensen Reynolds
Download or read book Companion to Baptist Hymnal written by William Jensen Reynolds and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 1976 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The publication of Baptist Hymnal 1975 has already modified the musical life of Southern Baptist churches. While conserving the hymns and gospel songs that Baptists have long loved, it has substantially increased the breadth of their hymnody. It is perhaps the first major denominational hymnal to reflect the new folk-gospel hymnody that is dynamically emerging today in American Christianity. It also draws, however, on great hymnic traditions of the past, especially those of England and Germany. It thus is a surprisingly universal collection of Christian song. It is this exciting book, developed under the editorial leadership of William J. Reynolds, which is the basis for Companion to Baptist Hymnal. The companion contains background information about the content of the hymnal--when and where texts and tunes were written, who authors and composers are, and some fascinating facts about why texts were written and how they have affected Christian life. Much of the panorama of Christian history is reflected in these pages, from the devotion of medieval monastics to the stirring lives of reformers and revivalists. Every reader who would understand Christianity stands to learn from these pages. Leaders of Christian worship, in particular, need the depth of background information that is provided here. Ministers and congregational music leaders can gain new understanding of, and appreciation for, the rich treasury of devotion that is contained in the hymnal. People who are interested in the study of Christian hymnody will find information here about recent hymns that has never been published before. Familiar material about older hymns is presented in clear and concise form. The first section of the book is arranged alphabetically by hymn text, with tunes discussed under related texts. The second section alphabetically lists authors and composers."--Dust jacket.

Book Synopsis A Companion to the New Harp of Columbia by : Marion J. Hatchett
Download or read book A Companion to the New Harp of Columbia written by Marion J. Hatchett and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The shape-note tradition first flourished in the small towns and rural areas of early America. Church-sponsored "singing schools" taught a form of musical notation in which the notes were assigned different shapes to indicate variations in pitch; this method worked well with congregants who had little knowledge of standard musical notation. Today many enthusiasts carry on the shape-note tradition, and The New Harp of Columbia (recently published in a "restored edition" by the University of Tennessee Press) is one of five shape-note singing-manuals still in use."--Jacket.

Book Synopsis Christian Hymnody in Twentieth-Century Britain and America by : David Music
Download or read book Christian Hymnody in Twentieth-Century Britain and America written by David Music and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2001-07-30 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 20th century, especially the latter decades, was a time of explosive growth and importance in hymnody, and yet published material about the hymnody of this period has been scattered and difficult to come by. The present volume catalogues and categorizes the available writings to guide students and scholars in their research. Furthermore, this reference does not depend primarily on the view of the author/compiler, but guides users toward a broad spectrum of viewpoints about 20th-century hymnody. Listing the principal writings on the repertory, language, practice, and people of hymnody during the last century, this annotated bibliography offers students and researchers alike a handy reference for a vast and varied field. Beginning with a unique introduction to and summary of hymnody in the 20th century, Music arranges the entries by topic, dividing each chapter by helpful subject headings. The repertory of the twentieth century, and language issues are discussed. Practical elements of hymnody are covered, while the final chapter lists writings about individual hymn writers and other influential persons in the field. Music provides a brief annotation for each entry and uses numerous cross-references, guiding the reader to relevant material in other sections of the book. A comprehensive index concludes this essential reference.

Book Synopsis Daily Telegraph Book of Hymns by : Ian Bradley
Download or read book Daily Telegraph Book of Hymns written by Ian Bradley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2006-09-14 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here are the full original texts of 150 of the best loved hymns in the English language. Each is accompanied by a fascinating commentary, giving biographical details of the author (such as the Calvinist creator of Rock of Ages who once calculated that the average human sins 2,522,880,000 times); notes on the circumstances in which the hymn was written; and variant versions. Each hymn is prefaced by an urbanely written and agreeably subjective commentary with a wealth of anecdotes and a few ribald parodies. This charming book should also be required reading for all those responsible for choosing hymns in church. Ian Bradley writes with wit, elegance and charm and is quite exceptionally knowledgeable about his subject.

Book Synopsis Baptism and the Baptists by : Anthony R. Cross
Download or read book Baptism and the Baptists written by Anthony R. Cross and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its first publication in 2000, Baptism and the Baptists has become the definitive work on the subject. It examines the theology and practice of believers' baptism among twentieth-century Baptists associated with the Baptist Union of Great Britain, and identifies the major influences which have led to its development. In the nineteenth and early twentieth century, the majority of Baptists concentrated predominantly on the mode and subjects of baptism (immersion and believers), understanding the rite merely as an ordinance--the believer's personal profession of faith in Christ. However, in continuity with a tradition of Baptists going back as far as the first Baptists in the second and third decades of the seventeenth century, there were also a significant number of ministers and scholars who saw the inadequacy of this view of baptism both biblically and theologically. This sacramental view developed and grew throughout the twentieth century, and influenced a resurgence of baptismal sacramentalism in the early twenty-first century among Baptists not just in Britain, but also in North America, Europe, and further afield.
