BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION: Roger Lee Hall (1942 -) is a leading authority on Shaker music. Born in Bloomfield, New Jersey, he was educated at Rutgers University (BA, 1970), SUNY Binghamton (MA, 1972), and pursued doctoral work at Case Western Reserve University. As a musicologist, composer, singer, teacher, and writer, Roger has studied and performed Shaker music since 1971. Over the past five decades, Roger published innumerable articles, arrangements of Shaker music, and compilations of scholarship while fostering a strong online presence through the early years of the Internet.
