Lutheran Music and Meaning

Daniel Zager
3.79/5 (14 ratings)
Music has meaning.

More than a series of notes, more than associated verbal texts, more than personal entertainment—music has meaning. In this concise and conversational exploration, Daniel Zager demonstrates how music signals and conveys meaning. With suggested listening examples, chapters discuss the means that the great Lutheran composers used to convey meaning and in what ways liturgy, Church Year, and lectionary provide integrated contexts for meaning. Written specifically for the singer and listener, this book assists the curious in learning more about Lutheran music, its function, and its meaning.

Daniel Zager is retired from the Eastman School of Music (University of Rochester), Rochester, NY, where he served for twenty-one years as associate dean and head of the Sibley Music Library, and associate professor of music. He holds a bachelor of music degree in organ performance from the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and an MA and a PhD in musicology from the University of Minnesota.
