The Anglican Chant Psalter

By Alec Wyton

An entire psalter of one hundred fifty psalms in The Book of Common Prayer translation set to Anglican chant in the time-honored "speech rhythm" pointing of The Parish Psalter from England as refined by Ray Francis Brown during his thirty-year tenure as Director of Music at The General Theological Seminary in New York City. The Standing Commission on Church Music followed Brown's principles in pointing the psalms of this book.

A brief introduction gives a description of chanting and the performance notes are helpful with the specifics of reading pointing.
