Music history of the United States to the Civil War : ウィキペディア英語版 | Music history of the United States to the Civil War
From independence to the start of the Civil War, American music underwent many changes. The folk vernacular traditions diversified and spread across the nation, while a number of prominent composers of European art music also arose. ==Shape note==
(詳細はThe First New England School of composers quickly spread south, facilitated by the invention of shape notes, a system in which four different note heads corresponded to the four syllables (fa, sol, la and mi) then used in musical instruction. In 1801, William Smith and William Little published ''The Easy Instructor'', a sacred tunebook introducing this system. While the shape-note system itself never took root in New England, ''The Easy Instructor'' and similar collections were instrumental in spreading the music of New England composers to the western and southern states, where tunebook compilers added settings of folk and popular melodies (including "folk hymns" and revival choruses) to the popular New England repertory. Popular collections included Ananias Davisson's ''Kentucky Harmony'' (Harrisonburg, Virginia, 1817), Allen Carden's ''Missouri Harmony'' (Cincinnati, 1820), William Walker's ''Southern Harmony'' (1835) and B.F. White and E.J. King's ''Sacred Harp'' (1844). As the popularity of seven-syllable (doremi) solmization increased in the antebellum period, some teachers and publishers experimented with seven-character shape notes as well; the system of Jesse B. Aikin in ''The Christian Minstrel'' (Philadelphia, 1846) eventually won out in the years after the Civil War.
