Let the People Sing~Paul Westermeyer

‘The Church's song, from Baptists to Roman Catholics, relies on a common core that has not been co-opted by cultural fads... Our task... is to listen to the wisdom of the church over long stretches of time and to sort out what is worth singing.’ This is a broad overview of selected hymn tunes, analyzing each for genre, earliest sources, creativity, and congregational appeal. 14 modern, English-languagee hymnals are surveyed to find the tunes most representative of those sung in today's church.
