The fuging-tune has long been associated with American music.
Indeed, it was once thought to have been an American innovation,
but research has shown that, like much else in 18th-century
America, the fuging-tune had its origins in England. The American
composer adopted and developed it, added his own expressive
touches, and made it a primary vehicle for his musical creativity.
The almost 1300 fuging-tunes by American composers published
between 1770 and 1820 testify to their widespread popularity and
musical impact. They represent about a quarter of all the pieces
composed by American psalmodists, and are by far the most
imaginative musical settings for religious poetry.
