Psalm 32

General Information:

Liturgical Uses: Responsorial psalm; themes of forgiveness; Lent

Refrain:
“Lord, forgive me the wrong I have done. O Lord, forgive me.”

Verses:
1) Blessed is the one whose fault is taken away, whose sin is covered.
Blessed is the one to whom the Lord holds not guilty,
In whose spirit there is no deceit.

2) I acknowledge my sin to you; my guilt I have not covered.
I said: "I confess my faults to the Lord,"
And you take away the guilt of my sin.

3) You are my shelter from distress you preserve me;
With glad cries of deliverance you will surround me.

4) Be glad in the Lord and rejoice you just;
Exult, all you upright of heart.

Composer's Notes:
The setting of the psalm is simple and plaintive, with the refrains in a penitent e minor key, while the verses are set a bit more hopeful in the relative major. Having an excellent bassoonist married to the recording engineer, gave me a chance to bring the instruments somber texture into the recorded arrangement.

Psalm 31

General Information:

Liturgical Uses: Responsorial psalm for Good Friday

Refrain:
“Father, into your hands, I commend my spirit.”

Verses:
1) In you, O Lord, I take refuge;
Let me never be put to shame.
Into your hand I commend my spirit;
You will redeem me, O Lord, O faithful God.

2) For all my foes I am an object of reproach,
A laughing stock to my neighbors, and a dread to my friends.
They who see me a broad flee from me.
I am forgotten like the unremembered dead.
I am like a dish, which is broken.

3) But my trust is in you, O Lord;
I say, "You are my God.
into your hands is my destiny;
Rescue me from the clutches of my enemies and my persecutors."

4) Let your face shine upon your servant;
Save me in your kindness.
Take courage and be stouthearted,
All you who trust in the Lord.

Composer's Notes:
My friend, Jason Villarreal Frias, a bass in the choir at St. Cecilia Parish, Boston, MA, approached me about writing a pieces specifically for the lower voices, and Psalm 31 was one suggestion. I originally wrote this as a pure a capella piece. On Good Friday, the church is bare and this is the first sung piece, after the suffering servant reading from Isaiah. The starkness of the piece fits the mood of the service.

When I had the opportunity to record with and incredibly talented cellist, Petr Spacek, who played with us for the last 4 years while attending New England Conservatory, I injected a cello line. Initially, the cello states the melody before the cantor sings it, followed by the congregation and choir. Each verse is set up by a short cello introduction. The cello then enters and leaves, accompanying the bass cantor.

Psalm 30

General Information:

Liturgical Uses: Responsorial psalm

Refrain:
“I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.”

Verses:
1) I will extol you, O Lord, for you drew me clear
And did not let my enemies rejoice over me.
O Lord, .you brought me up from below;
You preserved me from those going down.

2) Sing praise to the Lord, you his faithful ones,
And give thanks to his holy name.
For his anger lasts but a moment; a lifetime his good will.
At nightfall weeping enters, but with the dawn, rejoicing.

3) Here, O Lord, and have pity on me;
O Lord, be my helper.
You changed my mourning into dancing;
O Lord, my God, forever will I give you thanks.

Psalm 29

General Information:

Liturgical Uses:  Reflection on God's might
This psalm was not written as a responsorial psalm within the liturgical cycle. Rather the inspiration of the musical setting came from the source as the psalmist's inspiration. Watching the approaching storm across the desert, he saw the winds, the lighting and fires, and in the torrents of rain the awe-inspiring mighty power of God.

Refrain:
"Give glory, give glory and praises to the Lord."

Verses:
1) The voice of the Lord is over the waters.
The glory of God thunders.
A voice of might and majesty,
A voice which shakes the cedars of Lebanon,
And all in God's temple sing: Glory, glory to the Lord!"

2) The voice of the Lord is over the waters.
The glory of God thunders.
A voice which strikes the fiery flow,
A voice which shakes the land under the desert,
A voice which twists the mighty oaks,
A voice which shakes the land under the wilderness,
And all in God's temple sing: Glory, glory to the Lord!"

Synopsis
Praise God, the Creator,
Whose majesty's revealed in torrent and storm.

Benediction
God bless your people with peace.
Mighty ruler grant your people peace.
May the torrent turn tranquil: peace.
Mighty God, grant your people peace.

Refrain: Unison
Verses: Cantor

Recorded Versions:

Composer's Notes:
The recording starts with an instrumental depiction of the desert wilderness before the storm. I included some "not-well-tempered" instruments (e.g., wood flutes) to give the sense of the wildness of nature. The verses require a near-operatic performance by a strong mezzo to provide the strength and intensity that the pieces requires.

All in all, this is not a setting for a typical responsorial psalm, but rather better suited for a concert or time of reflection where it can be well-rehearsed.

Psalm 27

General Information:

Liturgical Uses: Responsorial psalm.

Refrain:
“The Lord I my light and my salvation.
Whom should I fear? Whom should I fear?

Verses:
1) The Lord is my light and my help
Whom should I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life;
Of whom should I be afraid?

2) There is one thing I ask of the Lord, for this I seek.
To live in the house of my God, all the days of my life.

3) I believe that the Lord will shoe me the path for my life.
I believe I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of living.

Composer's Notes:

I feel this psalm should be sung with entitlement. God is our light and salvation, so we need not fear! The liturgical “workhorse” setting of the by David Haas is nice and almost pretty. I wanted a setting with a different feel.

Angie, singing at
Ryles in Cambridge,
in Oct. 2010.

The refrain begins in what I’d say is a bit of moodiness with “the Lord is my light and my salvation” sung on 3 notes over somewhat vague chords over an E pedal, and then soars into D major with a sense of entitlement (“whom should I fear, whom should I fear!”). If you believe these words, I think you have to say them with conviction. No, not just conviction, but a sense of entitlement. Our faith entitles us to be unafraid.

This song calls for a young, confident voice. I asked Angie, at the time a senior at Berklee and member of the choir, to be cantor, as she has a wonderful faith and a voice to match it.

Psalm 25

General Information:

Liturgical Uses: Responsorial psalm, psalm for Advent season, offertory or communion song.

Refrains: Three versions of Psalm 25, each with a different refrain, are found in the Lectionary. Settings for each of the 3 versions are available.

1) “To you, O Lord, I lift my soul.”

2) “Your way, O Lord, are love and truth to those who keep your covenant.”

3) “Teach me your ways, O Lord, my God.”

Verses:
The verses are the same for each of the three refrains:

1) Your ways, 0 Lord, make known to me;
Teach me your paths
Guide me, teach me, for you are my Savior.

2) Remember your compassion, Lord, and your kindness of old.
Remember this, and not my sins,in your goodness, 0 Lord.

3) The-Lord is good and just; the sinners know the way.
God guides the meek to justice, and teaches the humble.

Arrangement:

Refrain: unison
Verses: Cantor

Composer's Notes:
The setting is intentionally simple and peaceful. The cantor can simply sing the lyrics and it provides the intended result.

The end of each verse has a descending line, suspended over a C pedal, with half notes in the piano part that begins in unison with the cantor, and descends to the 3rd of the dominant which sets up the tonic on the first beat of the refrain.

Psalm 23

General Information:

Liturgical Uses: Responsorial psalm, communion, themes of Jesus, the Shepherd

In fresh green meadows I wander, where I find rest.

2) Though I walk through the shadows of darkness, I need not fear.
God will lead me in safety through danger, safely to home.

3) God will prepare a table where I will feast.
Only goodness and kindness will follow, throughout my days.

CD: How Long, O God

Order from Wood Harbor Music

Composer's Notes:

My approach to composing a setting for perhaps the most well-known of the psalms was to set the refrain simply, with confidence, and a touch of entitlement. If we truly believe in God and God's care for us, we can feel confident that "God will lead me in safety through danger" and entitlement "Though I walk through the shadows of darkness, I need not fear."

The first verse sets up the peacefulness of the text by a slow melody supported by sustained A minor 9th chord. The melody arpeggiates up, from the 5th to the 7th to the 9th. The second half of the verse switches from the minor 9th to the A major 9th, with the raised 3rd reinforcing the sense of confidence.

The second verse starts on the same chord, but the melody is sped up, as one's heartbeat and pace naturally speeds up when in a place of danger. Again, the first half is in minor, while the second half shifts to major, with the confidence that "God will lead me in safety."

The 3rd verse mixes the two settings, starting with the slower melody in minor, and ending with the faster melody in major.

The second verse adds an alto harmony, while the 3rd voice includes both alto and tenor harmonies.

While the liturgical score includes a SAT refrain (with the alto at times singing above the melody), the recording for How Long, O God included a double choir with 2 sets of harmonies.

Psalm 22

General Information:

Liturgical Uses: Responsorial psalm for Palm Sunday

Refrain:
“My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?”

Verses:
1) They have taken my clothes to divide among them.
They cast lots for my robe.
Be not far from me, Lord, O my strength come to help me,
Deliver me from the sword.

2) My heart is like wax; it is melted inside me;
My strength is dried up like a stone.
My tongue cannot speak,
And you have brought me into the dust of death.

3) I will priase your name to my bothers and sisters;
I will praise you where they are found.
I will live for you, Lord, and my children will serve you;
They shall trust in you, Lord.

Composer's Notes:

This is, by far, the best product of a brief collaboration with Kevin O'Brien, who suggested writing a few psalm settings together, way back in 1981. Kevin wrote the melody for the verses, and it beautifully captures the pain and sorrow in the text of the first two verses. In Kevin's own hand:

"My tongue cannot speak, and you have brought me into the It's one of the best melodies with which I've been associated

I slightly re-altered Kevin's draft of the refrain, and also re-harmonized the verses.

Sometime before I recorded this for How Long, O God, I added a brief interlude before verse 3, which is the benediction. This provides a separation from the sorrowful verses to the hopeful verse.

In the recorded version, I had the flute play the interlude, and then added cello for the benediction (verse 3).
