Book Description
"Written to fill the need for a truly comprehensive text on hymnody, the Dr. Reynolds' book offers a complete course in the subject. Unlike other textbooks on hymnody, all of which confine themselves to a treatment of tunes or texts, this provides a well-balanced treatment of both. It also provides a concise but complete history of hymnody, tracing and evaluating it from earliest beginnings to present-day usage. A unique section contains 160 hymns and tunes compiled from the hymnals of seven major Protestant denominations. Ordinarily, classroom study of so large and diverse a collection would involve the use of at least a dozen hymnals. Designed specifically as a basic text in hymnody courses offered by seminaries and colleges, this versatile book eliminates the need for innumerable supplementary texts."--Dust jacket.

Book Description
The 20th century, especially the latter decades, was a time of explosive growth and importance in hymnody, and yet published material about the hymnody of this period has been scattered and difficult to come by. The present volume catalogues and categorizes the available writings to guide students and scholars in their research. Furthermore, this reference does not depend primarily on the view of the author/compiler, but guides users toward a broad spectrum of viewpoints about 20th-century hymnody. Listing the principal writings on the repertory, language, practice, and people of hymnody during the last century, this annotated bibliography offers students and researchers alike a handy reference for a vast and varied field. Beginning with a unique introduction to and summary of hymnody in the 20th century, Music arranges the entries by topic, dividing each chapter by helpful subject headings. The repertory of the twentieth century, and language issues are discussed. Practical elements of hymnody are covered, while the final chapter lists writings about individual hymn writers and other influential persons in the field. Music provides a brief annotation for each entry and uses numerous cross-references, guiding the reader to relevant material in other sections of the book. A comprehensive index concludes this essential reference.
