This book is written to make the richness of the old hymns more accessible. The CD alone is worth the purchase. They mix solos and chorus so you can hear the words but still get the traditional feel. This works really well.
I recommend this series for anyone who loves the old hymns and wants to know about their backgrounds and composers. They increase your precision for te words and Bible verses used or referenced.
Love these stories, words, and the CD.
I am a secret hymn listener! Yes, new music is important, but the Golden Age of Hymns will never be out of style for content, melody and 4-part harmony
Light reading. Not the depth I was looking for.
