A remarkable volume -- part music appreciation, part literary analysis, part theological presentation, part church history lesson, part devotional...with a whiff of polemic thrown in. (Dr. Esolen has no sympathy for the 'improvements' foisted upon older hymns in the interest of providing the 'inclusion' dictated by political correctness, nor does he have a very high regard for what passes as modern hymnody these days. It is somewhat ironic that the accompanying CD changes the wording in the second line of the second verse of "Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven" to reflect the very p.c.-run-amok Dr. Esolen deplores.) The Catholic point of view of the author is not overly emphasized. -- The book might have benefited from the inclusion of fewer hymns (some are given almost breathless treatment), and the accompanying CD might have benefited from a closer coordination with the text -- inclusion of some of the more unfamiliar hymns that Dr. Esolen describes, as well as some he discusses at greater length, would have been appreciated. Still, such shortcomings do not seriously spoil a fine volume that I read with much pleasure and joy -- and edification. ( ) ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
Real Music by Anthony Esolen is a comprehensive and fascinating guide, in print and song, to the great hymns of the Church. It shows that, unlike much of what is sung in too many Catholic churches today, good music, 'Real Music', combines great poetry with doctrinally sound lyrics and beautiful melody. With noted Catholic author Anthony Esolen as your guide, join the Catholic Musical Renaissance which is truly a recovery of the best that has been sung and prayed down through the ages. You'll be glad you did. Real Music is arranged by events in the life of our Lord and the seasons and Sacraments of the Church. This book will teach you much about poetry, music, and the Catholic Faith itself. What better way to learn your Faith than through beautiful music! Whether at home in your favorite easy chair, or among friends in an informal class at your parish, Real Music will bring you deep into the lyrics and melodies of the great hymns that so magnificently offer praise and honor to God.
