ORIGn OF ORATORIOS. They Werv j P::t Introduced In the Se:1m: Century. St. Phili" ic Weri. a Florentine priest. r 115. first introduced dra matie serv i his oratory. In order to drw the young or careless to church he and others who followed.his lead had hymns. psalms and spiritual songs or canutttas sung either in cho rus or by a SIingle favorite voice as spe cial attractions. These pieces were divided into two parts. Sacred stories or events from Scripture written in verse and by way of dialogue were set to music. and the first part was performed before the sermon. whili the people were induced to stay and hear that they might -not miss the performance of the second part. The subjects in early times were the "Good Samaritan" and the "Prodigal Son.- which by the excellence of the composition. the band of instruments and the performance brought the mu sic of oratory into great repute. Afterward any such rendering of sa cred musical drama obtained the gen eral appellation of "oratorio." The first oratorio in England was performed in London in Lincoln's Inn theater in Portugal street in 1732.
