TAYLOR, John.

A Collection of Tunes in various Airs adapted to Psalms taken out of Dr Watts’s Imitation of David’s Psalms. With a scheme of supporting the Spirit and Practice of Psalmody in Congregations. To which are prefixed Instructions in the Art of Psalmody in a natural and easy Method …

First edition, very rare, of a work of psalmody and music instruction by the dissenting minister John Taylor (1694–1761). Taylor had moved to Norwich in 1733, slowly diverting from orthodoxy under the influence of Samuel Clarke, before laying the foundation stone of the Octagon Chapel there in 1754, the same year he began to publish his Hebrew Concordance. His Collection of Tunes is interesting in being pitched in part towards an audience that sings by ear, with some basic instruction on how to balance the parts and some singing exercises to train the voice.
