English Psalmody Prefaces : Popular Methods Of Teaching, 1562-1835 / Ed. Bernarr Rainbow.

(Classic Texts In Music Education)

Boethius Press  ©1982


This volume presents reprints of the prefaces to representative collections of metrical psalms. Psalm-singing, an essentially popular form of music, required some musical knowledge in the singers : these prefaces provided basic information on the staves, clefs and note-values of contemporary notation. Dr Rainbow's introduction is a fascinating guide to the changing tastes and needs shown by the carefully selected reprints.
