In the antebellum period, most Americans first encountered European classical music through hundreds of hymn tunes that tapped into classical melodies. This book is the first in-depth study of the rise and fall of these popular, but largely overlooked, adaptations and their place in nineteenth-century American musical life.
Excerpt from Church Harmonies: A Collection of Hymns and Tunes for the Use of Congregations Fob many years there has been a growing desire in many congregations of the Universalist Church to participate more directly in the service of singing in the public worship. The present Collection of Hymns and Tunes has been made to meet this desire; and the compilers believe they have succeeded in producing a work which will meet the needs of our people. The tunes have been selected with reference to congregational singing only; and as there are hymns so closely associated with old tunes that they suggest one another, and could hardly be divorced, the compilers have not hesitated to insert a tune a number of times, when it seemed best adapted to give expression to the hymns. It is believed that this will be found a valuable and welcome feature of the work. The hymns are mainly those of the fine new collection known among us as the Portland Collection, when published without a liturgy, and as Prayers and Hymns, when published with a liturgy. To make each page complete, it has been found necessary to make an addition of nearly two hundred hymns, all of which add value to the book.
