Description

Explore fourteen seminal essays on English church music history in this authoritative collection by Nicholas Temperley, the pioneering scholar who transformed our understanding of popular church music in England. Bringing together hard-to-find articles from British and American journals and symposia, this volume examines how singing in church evolved from artistic neglect in the 16th and 17th centuries through to the development of the vernacular musical tradition. Drawing on Temperley's groundbreaking 1979 study The Music of the English Parish Church, his comprehensive Hymn Tune Index, and his influential contributions to The New Grove, these essays provide essential insights into the cultural and musical forces that shaped church music practices across four centuries. Essential reading for music historians, church musicians, scholars, and students seeking to understand the rich heritage and development of English sacred music traditions.
