Traditional a capella music in churches sometimes arrange the congregation in a "square," divided into Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Bass, with each side facing the middle. They would use "shaped note" hymnals, and beat their arms to the time. There would not be specific song leader and no choir. Everyone sang...and everyone "lead."

On April 10, 1865 my ggg grandfather, his brother, and "idiot" brother-in-law were killed by Captain Teague's scouts. Mitchell Caldwell laughed at the scouts and was forced to put his hat over his face. George Grooms, my ggg grandfather, cursed the men after playing Bonaparte's Retreat on his fiddle and was then murdered. All three men were taken from their homes, tied together and forced to walk 4 miles to Mt. Sterling. George's 12 year old daughter, Amanda, found their bodies the next day. For further information check the internet for the famous "Grooms Tune" or contact me at tanana@bellsouth.net.
