Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER II RITUAL AND SONG IN THE EARLY CHRISTIAN CHURCH A.D. 50-600 The epoch of the apostles and their immediate successors is that around which the most vigorous controversies have been waged ever since modern criticism recognized the supreme importance of that epoch in the history of doctrine and ecclesiastical government. Hardly a form of belief or polity but has sought to obtain its sanction from the teaching and usages of those churches that received their systems most directly from the personal disciples of the Founder. A curiosity less productive of contention, but hardly less persistent, attaches to the forms and methods of worship practised by the Christian congregations. The rise of liturgies, rites, and ceremonies, the origin and use of hymns, the foundation of the liturgical chant, the degree of participation enjoyed by the laity in the offices of praise and prayer, -- these and many other closely related subjects of inquiry possess far more than an antiquarian interest; they are bound up with the history of that remarkable transition from the homogenous, more democratic system of the apostolic age, to the hierarchical organization which became matured and consolidated under the Western popes and Eastern patriarchs. Associated with this administrative development and related in its causes, an elaborate system of rites and ceremonies arose, partly an evolution from within, partly an inheritance of ancient habits and predispositions, which at last became formulated into unvarying types of devotional expression. Music participated in this ritualistic movement; it rapidly became liturgical and clerical, the laity ceased to share in the worship of song and resigned this office to a chorus drawn from the minor clergy, and...

Excerpt from Music in the Western Church: A Lecture on the History of Psalmody, Illustrated With Examples of the Music of the Various Periods The Rev. Henry Allon's lecture, Music in relation to Church life, given some years ago on behalf of the London Young Men's Christian Association, is the nearest approach to such a history that the Author remembers to have seen. Mr. Allon's lecture, however, is not only incomplete but misleading; little or no mention is made of Descant, while the Gregorian Tones are presented with modern harmonies, whereas the merest tyro in musical history must know these Tones were always sung in unison (and are to this day in the Roman Catholic Church, except on special occasions), the employment of harmony being but of recent date. Anachronisms like this must, of course, greatly militate against the historical value of any work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
