The Diagnosis Of Non-Congregational Church Music: A Dialogue

By Diagnosis

Book Overview

The Diagnosis of Non-Congregational Church Music: A Dialogue is a book written anonymously in 1865. The book is a conversation between two individuals discussing the state of music in non-congregational churches. The dialogue focuses on the lack of congregational singing and the prevalence of choirs and instrumental music in these churches. The author argues that this type of music is not in line with the principles of congregational singing, which is meant to be a participatory activity for all members of the congregation. The book also delves into the history of church music and its evolution over time. The author provides examples of successful congregational singing in churches and offers suggestions for how non-congregational churches can improve their music programs. Overall, The Diagnosis of Non-Congregational Church Music: A Dialogue is a thought-provoking examination of the role of music in worship and the importance of congregational participation in church music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
