An Index to Anglo-American Psalmody in Modern Critical Editions

During the past several decades, psalmody—the sacred choral music of America and Great Britain during the eighteenth century—has seen a dramatic revival of interest. Over two dozen composers have had their collected works issued in scholarly editions and several important historical anthologies of this music have been published. In all over two thousand individual works are now available in critical editions. The Index to Anglo-American Psalmody in Modern Critical Editions makes this repertory accessible by tune name, composer's name, musical form, text source, first line of text, and topic of the text. A searchable CD-ROM disk accompanies the printed index. NB: The searchable CD-ROM is not included in the online version of this title.
