Modal Responsorial Psalms — Sundays, Solemnities, and Feasts

[THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS — UNTIL THIS NOTICE IS REMOVED, HARMONIZATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE/CORRECTION WITHOUT NOTICE. PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO RECEIVE ALL REVISIONS AS THEY ARE MADE.] Modal Responsorial Psalms in SATB for Sundays, Solemnities, and Feasts. With few exceptions, each setting's mode corresponds to the mode of the Gradual for the Sunday, regardless of textual similarity. A Word-centric compositional approach, repeated melodic motifs and psalm-tone patterns within each of the seven modes all help promote quick learning by cantor, choir, and congregation. Melody-only chant-notation version available at: http://www.ccwatershed.org/purchase/Esguerra_Psalms/ May be sung in SATB or unison, with or without accompaniment. SATB harmony may double as keyboard accompaniment. Basic chords included for plucked acoustic guitar accompaniment.
