'With One Heart and One Voice' A Core

The conclusions reached in this work will allow scholars, hymnologists, and hymn singers to explore the social and musicological influences on hymn tune writing, how long it took for texts to acquire a fixed tune, how tastes in hymn tunes change ever so slowly, and how many delightful tunes found in the core repertory of the 19th century have been dropped from today's repertoire.

Fred Kimball Graham is assistant professor of church music, university organist, and director of basic degree studies at Emmanuel College of Victoria University at the University of Toronto.
