Church Music

Japanese: 教会音楽 - きょうかいおんがく
Church Music

In the narrow sense, it means music used in Christian church services. Because this type of music is deeply related to the style of worship, there are many different types historically and by denomination. In the broader sense, it is used as a general term for music related to Christianity, but in many cases, more emphasis is placed on the music itself.

Japanese:

狭義にはキリスト教教会の礼拝に用いられる音楽を意味する。この種の音楽は礼拝様式と深くかかわっているため、歴史的にも教派によってもさまざまな種類がある。また広義に解しては、キリスト教と関係のある音楽の総称として用いられるが、多くの場合、音楽そのものに、より比重が置かれている。
