Description
As my co-worker in the parish often says, “Psalms are meant to be sung!” The singing of Psalms has a rich history, going back to the Tabernacle in the wilderness and to the Temple in Jerusalem. Sometimes the entire Psalm is sung by the choir (with or without instruments). Sometimes the congregation joins in with the singing of a Refrain. Other times the congregation joins in with the singing of the verses in alternation with the choir. This collection of Festive and Solemn Psalms has variety in the manner of singing the Psalms and in the musical forces required. May the Psalm setting be a blessing to you and your congregation!
