| Abstract |
These anthems are drawn from many sources representing the noblest schools of church music. The selections are of various degrees of difficulty, but not one of them is too difficult for performance by a choir reasonably diligent in rehearsal. The tradition of many of the best schools of church music calls for unaccompanied singing, a number of the anthems in this book are intended to be sung unaccompanied; an optional accompaniment, however, has been supplied in each case. |
