The whole church sings : congregational singing in… por Robin A. Leaver
Music and singing is an important part of our worship service, but that has not always been the case. The early hymnals did not even contain music, just words. Robin A. Leaver has written a book, The Whole Church Sings: Congregational Singing in Luther’s Wittenberg, that is a “lucid and detailed account of the origins of Protestant hymnody.” He describes the “rich contributions of both Luther and the Wittenberg Reformation to congregational hymns.” This is also one of the resources Dr. Johnson has used to write his new play. It can be found on the church library shelves under the number 780 LEA.… (más)
“Music played a vital role in Luther’s life—and he in turn had a deep and lasting effect on Christian hymnody. In Luther’s Liturgical Music, Robin Leaver comprehensively explores these connections.” This is the “most extensivestudy on Luther and music ever published.” It can be found on the library shelves under the number 781.71/LEA.
This was a wonderful resource in its day, and very forward looking in its tabulation of 25 Hymn / Worship Song books. Sadly since the demise of the ASB, and particularly the ASB Lectionary --which I still look back to with some nostalgia-- it has become a white elephant. Much loved and used in its time though!
