"American Writers and Compilers of Sacred Music" is a comprehensive biographical and historical survey that explores the lives and contributions of the individuals who shaped the landscape of religious music in the United States. Authored by Frank Johnson Metcalf, this work serves as an essential reference for understanding the evolution of hymnody, psalmody, and choral composition from the early colonial era through the 19th century.

The text meticulously documents the careers of numerous composers and compilers, offering insights into their musical education, professional achievements, and the cultural contexts in which they worked. From the pioneers of the singing school movement to the prolific hymn writers of the Victorian era, Metcalf provides detailed accounts that bridge the gap between musical theory and historical practice. This volume is a valuable resource for musicologists, historians, and anyone interested in the rich tradition of American sacred song. By cataloging the names and works of those who dedicated their lives to religious harmony, "American Writers and Compilers of Sacred Music" preserves a vital chapter of the nation's artistic and spiritual heritage.
