A SELECTION OF
Hymns and Tunes for the Service of the Sanctuary.
By JOS. P. HOLBROOK, Mus. Doc.,
Musical Editor of “Songs for the Sanctuary.” “Baptist Praise Book.” “Methodist Hymnal,” Author of “Quartet and Chorus Choir,” etc. etc.
In this work Dr. Holbrook has put the mature results of long, patient and careful study. His excellent judgment and taste, and the great attractiveness of his compositions, and especially
HIS ADMIRABLE ADAPTATIONS,
have already been noted and appreciated by all who are familiar with the former works edited by him. In addition to his own more familiar compositions, as well as new tunes which now appear for the first time, the author has drawn upon the store of ENGLISH AND GERMAN TUNES, such as have already become dear to American congregations. Where entirely new tunes appear, or such as are not generally known, the chorister will always find an old “stand-by” upon the same or opposite page. The book is thus adapted to both the precentor and choir.
In the selection and arrangement of Hymns he has been efficiently assisted by Rev. Dr. J. GLENTWORTH BUTLER who has been a life-long student of English Hymnology.
The work contains 450 pages, in full cloth and burnished edges.
Correspondence solicited. Returnable examination copies sent to Pastors or Committees. Specimen pages free to any applicant.
