Description
"Our music is a cantus firmus ('a fixed melody')," to quote Carl Schalk at the beginning of this selected collection of essays of the celebrated composer, teacher, and writer for and to the Church. This cantus firmus, the Church's song, is "the unavoidable result of the new life in Christ," he writes. And so it is the living song of Christ in the Chruch to which Schalk invites the reader in these essays. From dust jacket.

But the century in between these events was critically important as well. During this period, Leipzig's church music enterprise was convulsed by repeated external threats-a growing middle class that viewed music as an object...
