Harmonized Edition of the 200 Sacred Melodies (Classic Reprint) by Christian Henry Bateman Pdf
Excerpt from Harmonized Edition of the 200 Sacred Melodies IT is with peculiar feelings of gratitude to God for the great success that has attended previous issues of this work, that this larger and more complete Edition is sent forth. Since the first issue, now some twenty - seven years ago, five Editions have been called for, each larger than its predecessor, and an aggregate sale attained of some Millions of copies. The work, too, in its various forms has found its way all over the world, and is used in almost every place where the English tongue is spoken. Such results were never anticipated for it, when it came forth in a most unpretending form, and call for devout thanks to Him who has been pleased to bless it. The present Work contains many new pieces, and several of the Hymns have been written expressly for this Edition, as also several of the Tunes. Every effort has been made to avoid entrenching on copyrights, and permission has been asked, in all cases where the ownership could be found, for-the use of their compositions. Our best thanks are due for the kind and ready manner in which this has been granted in every case and should it be that, from any cause, a tune or hymn has got in without this leave, we must crave the kind indulgence of the authors. The work of Editorship has been divided between Mr. Inglis and myself, and we have spared no labour or thought in order to gather together whatever we believed would add value or interest to the book. Probably by there having been two Editors, of different tastes, the work will be found to meet a larger range of thought and feeling, and become more generally useful, than if drawn up and finished by one hand.

“The indelible imprint of sacred music drama throughout history is undeniable . . . and its resurgence in the twentieth and twentieth-first centuries stirs the curiosity.” Carl Gerbrandt, in pursuing these issues, has brought to our fingertips a stimulating historical perspective on sacred music drama as well as an extensively annotated list of repertoire. Years of research have gone into providing information on centuries of sacred music dramas/operas which for the most part have been known to very few. Included in these pages of his Second Edition are over 330 sacred music dramas/operas, each with scholarly and practical information that will be of interest and great value to the opera director, the performer, the scholar, the conductor and the church musician. Gerbrandt's SETTING THE STAGE section is an enlightening overview of sacred music history. The repertoire selected includes works from the Middle Ages to works being written today. Each work is reviewed with regard to the source of libretto, the style and difficulty of its musical content, the date and location of the first performance, the number of acts and scenes, and the performance length of the work. Additionally, each role is listed by name and voicing, and in most cases, the vocal range is indicated. The choral demands, orchestrations and dance requirements are identified. A thorough plot synopsis as well as the location of scores and parts is given. Ten appendices cross-reference textual sources and topical content while assisting in the selection of works for worship services or theatrical performances. Select contact information of publishers and composers in also included. Sacred Music Drama: The Producer’s Guide fills a long standing void by acquainting directors, students, performers and interested readers with the numerous sacred music dramas which are available.
Historical Dictionary of Sacred Music by Joseph P. Swain Pdf
Sacred music is a universal phenomenon of humanity. Where there is faith, there is music to express it. Every major religious tradition and most minor ones have music and have it in abundance and variety. There is music to accompany ritual and music purely for devotion, music for large congregations and music for trained soloists, music that sets holy words and music without words at all. In some traditions—Islamic and many Native American, to name just two--the relation between music and religious ritual is so intimate that it is inaccurate to speak of the music accompanying the ritual. Rather, to perform the ritual is to sing, and to sing the ritual is to perform it. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Sacred Music contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 800 cross-referenced entries on major types of music, composers, key religious figures, specialized positions, genres of composition, technical terms, instruments, fundamental documents and sources, significant places, and important musical compositions. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about sacred music.
