Beautiful hymns and anthems written by William Billings and sung by our American forefathers during the late 1700’s. Billings is considered by many to be the foremost representative of early American music. At 24, Billings published his first book of choral pieces, entitled The New-England Psalm-Singer, and Paul Revere engraved the frontispiece for it. Billings went on to publish five more volumes and several pieces of sheet music. The New-England Psalm-Singer was the first book of American music. It began a tradition of musical grass-roots choral singing in America. These lovely works of William Billings are impeccably performed by His Majesty’s Clerkes.
