Zen Virtual Piano पर Phoebe P. Knapp की पियानो शीट्स देखें। One day Phoebe played Fanny Crosby a tune she had composed and asked, "What does this tune say?" Crosby later wrote that she was asked to write a hymn for it and felt, as she brought the words and tones together, that the air and the hymn were meant for each other. Her longest-lived melody is the one for Blessed Assurance, an 1873 hymn with a text by Crosby. A composer asking a poet what her tune says suggests a collaboration in which the melody came first and the words answered it, and that she valued the poet's response to what her tune seemed to say. Knapp was born in New York City, to Walter C. Palmer and Phoebe Worrall Palmer. With evangelist parents, she grew up among religious music; mother and daughter frequently made hymns together, the older Phoebe writing verses and the younger composing melodies at the piano or organ. At sixteen she married Joseph F. Knapp, a partner in the lithography firm Major & Knapp and a director of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. A girl whose mother wrote verses for her melodies suggests that hymn-making was an ordinary family activity in her childhood, with mother and daughter dividing the work between words and tune. Three publications carried Blessed Assurance in its first year: Gems of Praise, No. 1, the periodical Guide to Holiness, and Bible School Songs, a book Knapp edited with J. H. Vincent. Over 500 gospel songs came from her pen, along with the published collections Notes of Joy (1869) and Bible School Songs (1873). Crosby, blind and later counted among history's most prolific hymn writers, and Knapp, a successful composer whose mother was the famed Methodist revivalist Phoebe Palmer, were here working together for one of their first times. Three publications in one year and hundreds of songs suggest that her tunes spread widely among Methodist readers almost as soon as they were written, and that publishers wanted a steady supply of them. Their apartment got a pipe organ from her husband, who also took out copyright on each of her tunes as she composed it. Evening musicales were a regular event for the Knapps, whose music room held an instrument collection considered among the finest in the country. Widowed with a large income, she gave much of it to charity; in 1898 she took a suite at the Savoy Hotel in New York, and an organ stood in her room. A wealthy Christian, she held that faith ought to help the poor and promote reform, and she took part in several reform and political causes of the time. A music room, an organ in a hotel suite and charitable giving hint at a composer whose wealth and faith both shaped how she worked, with the money giving her room to write and the faith giving her a purpose.
