The Collegeville Psalter is a brand new responsorial psalm collection for Catholic worship, composed by one of today's most accomplished and inspiring composers. It faithfully follows the U.S. Lectionary text of the psalms and responses for the complete three-year cycle of Sundays and major feastdays. It also includes settings of the "Common Texts" responsorial psalms.
The music is fresh and singable, with memorable responses for the assembly, interesting tones for the cantor, and accessible accompaniments for organ or keyboard. Psalms with different refrains or sets of verses use the same or related musical material. The book is comprehensively indexed.
An important new resource, The Collegeville Psalter serves well either as a stand-alone parish psalter or as a supplement to other psalters.
