  • The Translation of German Pietist Imagery Into Anglo-American Cultures

First, I must thank Katie Arens, who always believed in me and faithfully guided me through this journey across centuries and great geographic expanses. It is truly rare to find a dissertation advisor with the expertise and interest to direct a project that begins in medieval Europe and ends in antebellum America. Without her belief in the study of hymns as literature and the convergence of religious and secular discourses this project and its contributions to scholarship would have remained but vague, unarticulated musings. Without Julie Sievers, this project would not have its sharpness of focus or foreground so clearly its scholarly merits, which she so graciously identified.

  • The Treatment of the Chorale Wie Scan Leuchtet Der Iorgenstern in Organ Compositions from the Seven Teenth Century to the Twentieth Century
    379 THE TREATMENT OF THE CHORALE WIE SCAN LEUCHTET DER IORGENSTERN IN ORGAN COMPOSITIONS FROM THE SEVEN TEENTH CENTURY TO THE TWENTIETH CENTURY THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State College in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC By Paul Winston Renick, B. M. Denton, Texas August, 1961 PREFACE The chorale Wie schn iihtet derMorgenstern was popular from its very outset in 1589. That it has retained its popularity down to the present day is evident by its continually appearing in hymnbooks and being used as a cantus in organ compositions as well as forming the basis for other media of musical composition. The treatment of organ compositions based on this single chorale not only exemplifies the curiously novel attraction that this tune has held for composers, but also supplies a common denominator by which the history of the organ chorale can be generally stated. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page PREFACE . * . * . * . * * * . * .

  • Cantors of the Church
    HENRY MELCHIOR MUHLENBERG (1711 – 1787) Photo courtesy of Valparaiso University Archives . was to North American Lutheranism what George Washington was to the fledgling United States, for Muhlenberg fathered the first union of Lutheran congregations on these shores. Following theological study at Göttingen, young Muhlenberg spent a short term in the small village of Grosshennersdorf, then taught at the orphanage in Halle, the center of the Pietist movement. The Pietist leader, Johann H. A. Francke, was deeply committed to the immigrant congregations in America and chose Muhlenberg to provide spiritual leadership for the Germans in Pennsylvania. Muhlenberg reached Philadelphia in 1742 only to discover deep spiritual distress. The young pastor threw himself into the work of creating spiritual power out of ecclesiastical confusion. A serious shortage of pastors during surging North European immigration had opened the door for imposters who usurped spiritual authority — and fees! — for themselves. Muhlenberg met the challenge head on, even confronting the Moravian Count Nicholas von Zinzendorf and his grandiose claim to be bishop of all the separated churches. Conscious of the opportunity to create a powerful church without the constraints of Europe’s religious despotism, he adopted the motto ecclesia plantanda (the church must be planted). By 1748 Muhlenberg had created an orderly church organization, generally known as the Pennsylvania Ministerium. Adding to the confusion was the multiplicity of hymnals the immigrants had brought from the various German states of their origins. Common worship and hymn singing were difficult at best. Lack of musical leadership created yet another burden for the overworked pastor, who was actually proficient on organ, cittern (a type of guitar), violin, and harp.

Just as Johann Friedrich, Elector of Saxony, had feared, and Luther himself had prophesied, his trip to the duchy of Mansfeld to settle a jurisdictional dispute had proven too much.
