This work was possibly influenced by the American composer Thomas Hastings author of "Musica Sacra" which William Williams also printed in Utica in 1816. Hastings at that time had a singing school in Utica.<p>"That christians have been criminally negligent in their exertions to improve this part of worship is unhappily too manifest to be questioned. In most of our churches the airs that are performed are learned without effort and sung without accuracy.--They are caught by the ear and many who attempt them have no knowledge of the science of music and no pretensions to an acquaintance with the art of singing. If the angels veil their faces when the heavens echo the music that flows from their golden harps before the throne of God; what excuse can be offered for the inhabitants of his footstool who do not make a serious attempt to praise him with reverence" -- Quoted from the preface.
