Shaw was a noted American composer compiler teacher singer organist and publisher. "After accidental eye damage leading to blindness he undertook musical studies with John L. Berkenhead Gottlieb Graupner and Thomas Granger about 1800. In 1805 he established himself as a teacher of the piano and organ in Dedham Massachusetts where he began to issue his music in collaboration with Herman Mann. Moving to Providence in 1807 Shaw became a central figure in the city's musical life as organist organizer of bands and composer of songs odes anthems and marches for patriotic and civic occasions. . Shaw sought to improve the quality of local sacred music co-founding the Psallonian Society and provided inspiration to the founding of the Boston Handel and Haydn Society in 1815 frequently participating in its early performance. His tenor voice was described as sweet simple and natural; his performances of his own compositions were said to be remarkably affective. Mary's Tears There's nothing true but heav'n and All things fair and bright are thine were particularly popular establishing him as a leader in the development of American song. Shaw taught the piano and singing throughout his career and conducted singing schools in the early decades of the 19th century Lowell Mason was among his pupils. He also instructed his own children who later served him as amanuenses. His pedagogical compositions include many easy keyboard pieces two instructional books for the piano 1811 1831 and a compilation of ensemble music For the Gentlemen 1807 which was one of the earliest American printed instrumental tutors by a native composer."
