william billings - modern musick lyrics

we are met for a concert of modern invention;
to tickle the ear is our present intention
the audience are seated expecting to be treated
with a piece of the best, with a piece of the best
and since we all agree to set the tune on e
the author’s darling key he prefers to the rеst

let the bass take thе lead and firmly proceed till the parts are agreed to fugue away. to
let the tenor succeed and follow the lead till the parts are agreed to
let the counter inspire the rest of the choir inflam’d with desire to
let the treble in the rear no longer forbear, but expressly declare for a fugue away
then change to brisker time and up the ladder climb
and down again; then mount the second time
and end the strain

then change the key to pensive tones
and slow in treble time the notes exceeding low
keep down a while then rise by slow degrees;
the process will surely not fail to please

thro’ common and treble we jointly have run
we’ll give you their essence compounded in one
altho’ we are strongly attached to the rest
six_four is the movement that pleases us best, that pleases us best
six_four is the movement that pleases us best
and now we address you as friends to the cause;
performers are modest and write their own laws
altho’ we are sanguine and clap at the bars
’tis part of the hearers to clap their applause, to clap their applause
’tis part of the hearers to clap their applause
