The Diagnosis of Non-Congregational Church Music: A Dialogue is a book written by an anonymous author in 1865. The book is a dialogue between two characters, a musician and a layman, discussing the state of music in non-congregational churches. The author argues that the music in these churches is often too complex and performed by trained choirs, which distracts from the congregational singing and participation. The author suggests that music in church should be simple and easy to sing, with the congregation taking an active role in the singing. The book also touches on the role of the organ in church music and its potential to overpower the voices of the congregation. The author calls for a return to simpler and more participatory music in non-congregational churches, in order to better engage the congregation in worship. Overall, The Diagnosis of Non-Congregational Church Music is a critique of the state of music in certain churches and a call for reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
