Psalm for Sundays and Solemnities (NRSV Translation) - Year A

A publication composed of Psalm Settings for the NRSV Psalms, coinciding with the Canadian Edition of the Lectionary, Sundays and Solemnities.

Most of the settings were composed by Canadian composers. There is a generous selection of Psalms for each Sunday, solemnity and even Common “Seasonal Psalms”. The book is designed to enable cantors and assemblies to sing the Responsorial Psalm during Sunday Mass and Solemnities as simply as possible. Each book is divided into two sections, the first for musicians/cantors contains the entire Psalm (refrain, verses and complete music); the second contains the refrain with music for the assembly.

Each publication includes:

• For musicians: complete music for keyboard and guitar
• For cantors: complete music for refrains and verse tones
• For the assembly: accessible melodies for the refrain
• Copyright permissions: Both the music for the musicians /cantors and that for the assembly can be copied (or projected)
• A CD is included with:
• PDF files for easy duplication (up to a maximum number of copies without having to seek copyright permission) or projection
• MP3 files with a sample of the refrain and verses (music and cantor)
