Harry Eskew taught Music History and Hymnology at the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary for thirty-six years. For those lucky enough to be among his master's and doctoral students, he made hymnological research a joyful adventure. Likewise, he influenced other students and colleagues through his work as Editor of The Hymn and through his hymnology textbook Sing with Understanding, co-authored with long-time friend and colleague Hugh McElrath. Few among contemporary teachers of hymnody could claim a wider influence.
