Publication
Thomas Clark's A Second Set of Psalm & Hymn Tunes was published in 1806. The first issue of the book was printed for the author by James Peck, and was entered at Stationers' Hall on 29 March 1806. The work is also dated 'Peck Engraver Lombard Street LONDON. 1806' at the end of the last piece, 'The Pilgrim's Song', on p59. The work was later reissued by John Whitaker & Co. of 75, St. Paul's Church Yard, London.
Description of contents
The collection consists of 31 metrical psalm or hymn tunes, and three set-pieces (through-composed settings of metrical texts).
The music is laid out in full score with the soprano air next to the bass. The treble clef is used for soprano, alto, and tenor parts, with both the alto and tenor parts being notated an octave above sounding pitch. The vocal bass part is figured.
