Hymns, Spirituals, & Folk Songs

Alveary 2026-27
(Digital copy)

$ 39.00 USD

Perfect for groups of students of all ages, these lessons cover 4 songs each term and introduce students to great hymns, spirituals, and famous folk songs. Students learn a bit about the history of each song and its theological, historical, and/or musical connections. Folk songs (and often spirituals and hymns as well) tie into the time period Alveary is studying (1800-1900AD for 2026-27) to give students a sense for the sounds of the time. Extra helpings, composition suggestions, teacher tips, and scheduling help included.

The multi-authored Charlotte Mason Centenary Monograph series is designed to highlight and explore the continuing educational and leadership relevance of Charlotte Mason (1842–1923) through the collective contributions of the Armitt Museum and Library, the University of Cumbria, the Charlotte Mason Institute, and other scholars and practitioners worldwide.
