Music Notes: This First Sunday of Lent, the lesson theme is the temptation in the wilderness and our music points to that theme as it relates to our lives today. In our worship Sunday the 21st, we’ll sing hymn 170 from Lift Every Voice and Sing, the spirituals ‘Steal away to Jesus,’ and ‘Let us break breads together’ and the early American folksong, ‘Bourbon,’ the words of which were written in the 6th century by Gregory the Great. More about the tune ‘Bourbon’ reads as follows: A pentatonic (five-pitch) folk tune from the southern United States, BOURBON fits well with…the hymn 147 text. The tune calls for unison singing, with accompaniment providing a firmly articulated rhythm but like many pentatonic tunes, when unaccompanied it can be sung in canon after either one or two measures, (We may try that). Included in Columbian Harmony (1825), BOURBON was credited to Freeman Lewis (1780-1859). The tune appeared in several other nineteenth-century songbooks, among them Hauser's Hesperian Harp (1848) and the tune’s title presumably refers to the aristocratic French family whose descendants included Henry IV, Phillip V, and Charles III, and after which a Kentucky county is named.
