AUTHOR'S ADVERTISEMENT The Author of this collection of Sacred Music begs leave respectfully to present "The New Village Harmony " to the public, and to recommend it as well adapted to the wants and capacities of Sabbath School Pupils; — as well as for the use of choirs, which, from a deficiency in numbers, find it inconvenient to perform pieces so harmonized as to re- quire a greater number of parts to be sustained; — and on the same account, for use in the conference room and family circle. The greater number of the tunes are original; the remainder consists of tunes select- ed from his other publications, viz. the American Harp, an original work, and the An- cient Lyre, a compilation and new arrangement of old and new tunes; — the whole are harmonized either for two Trebles, for two Trebles and Base, or for three Trebles. The book, besides being entirely free of selections from Operas, Songs, Glees, &c, is in the true style of Church Music, either as regards the expression of the melodies, the variety of metres, or sentiments of the hymns; and will, he hopes, prove very useful. An Introduction to the Art of Singing is introduced into the work in a plain and sim- ple style, by question, answer and illustration; and, with a proper degree of explanation on the part of the teacher, and attention on the part of the pupil, will be found sufficient to give a good knowledge of the rudiments of the science. Entered, according to act of Congress, in the year 1833, by LINCOLN, EDMANDS & CO. in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of Massachusetts PUBLISHERS' PREFACE. Among the means now used in this age of benevolent effort to cultivate the mind and improve the heart, teaching children the science of Music holds a primary rank. Every facility, therefore, which is given to this branch of study is welcome to the community ; hence the publication of this Musical Manual. In presenting this work to the patronage of those who aie interested in the intellectual advance of the youth of our country in the important service of Sacred Song, the Publishers feel confident that in its preparation the acknowledged talents of the Author will be found to have been successfully employed. The establishment of Sabbath Schools has had a direct tendency to engage the young in the delightful service of Sacred Music, the influence of which on the mind, in every situation of life, is universally ac- knowledged. The young convert expresses his glow of gratitude to his Redeemer in songs of praise ; and, with the sweet singer of Israel, the mature Christian swells the anthem of his thanksgiving for pre- serving grace. Indeed the improving taste of the age in this science, seems to be establishing the truth of the sentiment of an ancient philosopher, that " music contains the seed of moral life." It may indeed be said that music enhances, almost to perfection, the pleasures of social intercourse. Its exercise not only invigorates health, but brings into action one of the most cheerful faculties of the mind. It has power to dispel despondency, and to brighten hope. The cultivation of the voice in the strains of melody, and of the ear in the varied notes of harmony, tends to quicken our sensibilities, and to open the heart to the moral of the verse ; hence the importance of connecting correct and salutary hymns with the tunes to be learned by juvenile performers. First im- pressions are always deep ; and, as the words which accompany pieces of music are so thoroughly com- mitted to memoiy as never to be forgotten, their wholesome tone is of the first importance to the young. In selecting the hymns, therefore, for this work, great care has been taken in reference to the sentiments which they inculcate. Bobtoh, July, 1833. STEREOTYPED BY LYMAN THURSTOS& CO. ■©•TOIT.

The words may be used in singing, only when the learner shall have attained a certain degree of facility in reading music. It is necessary to explain the situations of the whole and half tones in the scales, and dieir places in die major and minor scales. By this method the learner will have infinitely less trouble than by the old Do, Re, Mi, Fa. His voice will sooner shew the effect of cultivation. Xll Practical Lessons. DIATONIC SCALES.
