Worship Music : A Concise Dictionary

worshipmusic.jpgFoley, Edward, ed. Worship Music : A Concise Dictionary.
     Collegeville, Minnesota: The Liturgical Press, 2000.

Ref ML102.C5 W67 2000

This dictionary contains definitions pertaining to the worship music of English-speaking North America and to the broad musical and liturgical traditions that shaped its contemporary practice. The dictionary entries are informative as well as being accessible, are extensively cross-referenced, and many contain brief bibliographies. This work would be very useful to students with an interest in sacred musical traditions, and to those who perform in a variety of religious contexts.
