Abstract:

Filling a void during the absence of professional musicians in North Carolina, the Moravians have shared and emanated their love of music through several centuries. Brought to the New Word during the period of settlement, the Moravians utilized the organ, piano, harpsichord, clavichord, harp, fiboline, cello, and viola, to glorify god and express their religious sentiments.
