This is part of a growing historiography from especially the past decade that tackles the intersection of these phenomena in the nineteenth century especially. This is not a book of musicology and there is no musical analysis (although there is a very interesting “book soundtrack” linked from the press webpage that recreates in a contemporary style some of the songs this book discusses). As such the writings about politics and music by elite men provide the bulk of the source material. The newspapers, private correspondences, reports of musical societies, and diaries reveal that Americans thought about music and politics in tandem. Early Americans thought about music in relation to politics and their ideas about the power of music shaped political experiences. Billy Coleman’s Harnessing Harmony reminds us that patriotic music is just as political as protest music, even if its political work is done to secure the power of the status quo.

abstract:This article concerns the 1688 Germantown Friends’ Protest Against Slavery. The document was written and signed by Francis Daniel Pastorius and three like-minded Quakers. Pastorius’s protest sparked early abolitionist debate in the American colonies, leading to other antislavery protests, such as Cadwalader Morgan’s and George Keith’s protests in the following decade. The Protest is a key example of early American diplomacy as it saw slavery as a contentious point with the potential to damage the new colony’s relationship with Europe and subsequent immigration. The Protest was not initially successful, garnering little response from contemporary Quakers. However, its long-term influence has provided the path for abolitionist legislation in the late 1700s and led to the shunning of pro-slavery Quakers.

abstract:The Americanization of the Philadelphia German Reformed community had its origins during the era of the American Revolution. Coming from a European Reformed tradition that had state support, the community found it difficult to maintain a church in the pluralistic environment of colonial Pennsylvania but the church’s charter of incorporation provided the needed modicum of support for the religious enterprise. Throughout the American Revolution, the Philadelphia German Reformed community supported the Patriot cause and its pastor, Caspar Weyberg, openly spoke in favor of independence during the British occupation of Philadelphia. However, the Philadelphia German Reformed community still valued aspects of its European heritage. The official language of the congregation remained German throughout the eighteenth century. In addition, the community was loyal to its theological and liturgical heritage embodied in the Heidelberg Catechism and the Palatinate Liturgy.
