Wasn’t hymn music developed from Bar-room music?

NO, NO, NO!!! :) This is an urban legend that started because someone didn't know anything about musical notation and made an incorrect assumption, probably in trying to prove a false point. Bar music is actually a form of music notation and not a reference to "tavern". Click here for an article debunking that hoax.

Ok. Thanks for the correction. Apologies for being mistaken.

I was just trying to make the point that music changes throughout history. In Bible times David used his harp. Churches used organ then. Then piano. Then acoustic guitar. Now electric guitar. Are people not supposed to use microphones with reverb b/c that wasn’t a Biblical thing and alters the voice? Same as distortion with a guitar.
