Home » Sacred Music

Sacred music is a type of music that is performed or composed for religious use or through religious influence. It may overlap with ritual music, which is music, sacred or not, performed or composed for or as ritual. Religious songs have been described as a source of strength, as well as a means of easing pain, improving one’s mood, and assisting in the discovery of meaning in one’s suffering. While style and genre vary broadly across traditions, religious groups still share a variety of musical practices and techniques.
