Carl Flentge Schalk (September 26, 1929 – January 24, 2021) was a noted Lutheran composer, author, and lecturer. Between 1965 and 2004 he taught church music at Concordia University Chicago.[1] During this time he guided the development of the university's Master of Church Music degree, which has since graduated more than 140 students.[2] Schalk was a member of the Inter-Lutheran Commission on Worship, which produced Lutheran Book of Worship in 1978.[1] He was also the editor of the journal Church Music from 1966 to 1980.[3] Additionally, he was a member of the Music Advisory Committee of Concordia Publishing House and of the board of directors of Lutheran Music Program,[2] the parent organization of the Lutheran Summer Music Academy and Festival.
Schalk graduated in 1952 from Concordia University Chicago (then known as Concordia Teachers College River Forest) with a B.S. in education and proceeded to earn a M.Mus from the Eastman School of Music and an M.A.R. from Concordia Seminary in Saint Louis.[2][3]
Schalk is well known for his numerous choral compositions as well as his hymn tunes and carols, which number over one hundred.[2] He had ongoing collaborations with poets Jaroslav Vajda and Herbert Brokering, producing tunes for several of their hymn texts.[1] Schalk's hymn tunes may be found in modern Christian hymnals of various denominations. He is also the author of several books on Lutheran music and hymnody. In 2013, a critical biography of Schalk was published,[4] and in 2015, a collection of articles and essays about church music by Schalk was released.[5]
Schalk died on January 24, 2021, in Melrose Park, Illinois, at the age of 91.[6]
