Beschreibungen/Notizen

• "The title given by Evans [entry 9369] comes from Hildeburn, who was apparently following an advertisement for this piece."--Shipton & Mooney. - Attributed to Francis Hopkinson by Bristol and Shipton & Mooney. However, O.G. Sonneck, in Francis Hopkinson .. and James Lyon, 1905, finds the evidence to be inconclusive, and suggests John Todd, A.M., as another possible author. That Andrew Steuart was printer further undermines the attribution to Hopkinson, as the two were involved in a dispute in 1763 concerning other publications. Cf. Hastings, G.E. The life and works of Francis Hopkinson, 1926. - Bristol, B2415. - English Short Title Catalog, W4756. - Evans, 9369. - Hildeburn, C.R. Pennsylvania, 1883. - In fact a satire upon, rather than a second edition of, James Lyon's The lawfulness, excellency, and advantage of instrumental musick in the publick worship of God urg'd and enforc'd .. Philadelphia : William Dunlap, 1763 (Evans 9424). Evans' entry for a second edition of Lyon's work (Evans 9425) may be a ghost of the present work. - Reproduction of original from Library of Congress. - Sabin, 39342. - Shipton & Mooney, 41390
