main uses of music in the church. AS
a preparation for spiritual thought, as
means of expression for the deeper
emotions, and as an elevating force for
bringing the soul nearer to the divine
power. He described how, by the
proper use of music, the soul was at
tuned to divine things, at the begin

the misuse of that opportunity by Or
