Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

Reviews
The volume is so rich and offers so much that is of tremendous value - especially to a professor who is teaching on the intersection of the Bible and music - that I can recommend it as not merely worthwhile but essential to anyone interested in this subject area., The Bible in Music: A Dictionary of Songs, Works and More is a handy reference work for both library and desk research and good for any musicologist involved in working with faith communities., "This volume by Long and Sawyer presents annotated descriptions of classical (oratorios, operas, sonatas) and non-classical (musicals, hymns, spirituals, pop, rock music) music. . . .In this first publication to annotate descriptions of vocal and instrumental pieces with Biblical associations, the compilers paid special attention to works by women composers. . . .The dictionary, arranged alphabetically by title or first line, uses German, Latin, French, Italian, or Hebrew titles. Entries include title, date, composer, and a description to help readers locate music that references specific texts or topics. . . .The chronology presents key events, works, and publications, while the glossary lists basic terms and some world-music terminology. The 'Index of Biblical Names and Subjects' and 'Index to Biblical References' (including the Apocrypha) prove quite useful. . . .Choir directors and vocal students will appreciate the descriptions presented.

Synopsis
This is the first book to catalog how the Bible has been interwoven into Western music from early classical music to today's pop hits. Winner of both International Book Awards and Best Books Award., There have been numerous publications in the last decades on the Bible in literature, film, and art. But until now, no reference work has yet appeared on the Bible as it appears in Western music. In The Bible in Music: A Dictionary of Songs, Works, and More, scholars Siobhan Dowling Long and John F. A. Sawyer correct this gap in Biblical reference literature, providing for the first time a convenient guide to musical interpretations of the Bible. Alongside examples of classical music from the Middle Ages through modern times, Dowling Long and Sawyer also bring attention to the Bible's impact on popular culture with numerous entries on hymns, spirituals, musicals, film music, and contemporary popular music. Each entry contains essential information about the original context of the work (date, composer, etc.) and, where relevant, its afterlife in literature, film, politics, and liturgy. It includes an index of biblical references and an index of biblical names, as well as a detailed timeline that brings to the fore key events, works, and publications, placing them in their historical context. There is also a bibliography, a glossary of technical terms, and an index of artists, authors, and composers. The Bible in Music will fascinate anyone familiar with the Bible, but it is also designed to encourage choirs, musicians, musicologists, lecturers, teachers, and students of music and religious education to discover and perform some less well-known pieces, as well as helping them to listen to familiar music with a fresh awareness of what it is about., There have been numerous publications in the last decades on the Bible in literature, film, and art.

    Excellent seller! I cannot say enough about this seller. I added something at the last minute and they were very helpful and getting everything into one box for one shipment instead of two. That helps me a lot! So the store has many great things for my tastes and they communicate very well and very quickly and they ship very well, and very quickly. All in all I wouldn't hesitate to buy them again!

    I was able to get 9 books by Jody Hedlund from this seller priced fairly. Books were packaged with care wrapped in lots of paper and put in a cardboard book. Books shipped quickly and arrived fast too. Honest seller. Described books “like new” and that’s what I received. I am very happy 😃 with my purchase.
