Exhibit To Display American Music Examples of the first-published early American music, including the song that later became the popular "America," highlight the current exhibit at the University's Clements Library of Americana. Selected from the library's per- manent collection and described by associate professor Allen P. Britton of the University School of Music, the exhibit includes es- says and sermons on the topic of church-singing by memory or by book-a cause of violent contro- versy in 1720. John Cotton and Cotton Mather were two of the well-known figures of the time favoring the use of "tune-books"and the teaching of singing. Samples of their writ- ing on the subject are on exhibi- tion. Also on display are examples of the original "tune-books," a rarity since most of them have been worn out with use over the years. One of the books carries the mark of engraver Paul Revere, and ano- ther includes the tune, "Chester," that became the basic of the fav- orite marching song of Revolution- ary War soldiers. Tune-stealing is evidently not a new practice, since one of the books shows the simple melody that was made from a theme ex- cerpted from Handel's "Messiah." The exhibit will be on display through January from 9 a.m. to noon and from 1 to 5 p.m. Mon- day through Friday. ..
