Description: Fifteen hundred years ago, St. Benedict established a system of ora et labora prayer and work that monastics still follow today. Central to this prayerful integration of body and spirit is psalmody, or chanting the psalms. On Singing the Psalms, Episcopal priest Cynthia Bourgeault shows how the psalms can awaken rich spiritual and psychological insights accessible to you today, whatever your level of vocal skill or theological understanding. Includes a mini-psalter (psalm book) with instructions, musical notations, rhythmic and melodic suggestions, and more.

Fantastic introduction to singing the Psalms and contemplative Psalmody with some Theology thrown in. Her singing voice is nothing to write home about. But I found that engaging. I would have been intimidated by a more professional sounding singing voice. But, if she can sing the psalms, so can I.
