Description - Samuel Babcock (ca. 1760-1813): The Collected Works by Laurie Sampsel

Samuel Babcock was an active Boston-area composer who made a significant contribution to the repertory of American psalmody. Best known for his tunebook, Middlesex Harmony, Babcock composed extended and plain psalm tunes, set pieces, fuging tunes, and anthems, and frequently used three-part vocal textures. He uniquely combined elements of both traditional and newer Methodist styles of psalmody. This edition includes 75 works known to be by Babcock, plus six of unknown attribution.
