    IntroductionPractical Information for

    Singing the PsalmsAccompaniments and Choral ArrangementsThese musical settings are written to be accompanied by keyboard and/or guitar. While some guitar chords reect a harmony different from the notated keyboard/choral har-mony, the chords and keyboard part are compatible and function well together. Some chords have been bracketedthese may be omitted by the guitarist when playing alone.

    Choral arrangements with descants are provided for all Responsorial Psalms and Gospel Acclamations.

    Psalm Responses and Gospel AcclamationsAll Psalm Responses and Gospel Acclamations offered in Respond & Acclaim match those found in Todays Missal, Heritage Missal, Companion Missal, Breaking Bread and the English portion of Unidos en Cristo/United in Christ. Span-ish responses and acclamations by various composers are available in the OCP resource Responde y Aclama.

    Psalm and Gospel VersesPsalm verses are designed to be sung by a cantor or a vocal ensemble. They are not intended for use by the assembly. If it is not practical for the verses to be sung, they may be spoken while the accompaniment is played softly as a back-ground to the spoken word. At the end of each verse, the assembly sings the response.

    Gospel verses are sung in the same manner as the psalm verses. It should be noted that according to the General Instruction of the Roman Missal, if the Gospel Acclamation or Verse before the Gospel is not sung, it may be omitted altogether (GIRM 63c).

    On the Singing of Chant VersesThe rst preparation for singing the verses is done without the musicthey should be read, understood, and allowed to emanate from a place of prayer in the hearts of the singers.

    The verse settings are chant tones which by their very nature ow in long, lyrical lines. While the tones do not draw atten-tion to themselves, these verses should come across as an important part of the whole, not just as ller until the next repetition of the response, and should be sung in a way that reects the character of the individual response.

    In cases where the number of phrases in a psalm verse is not consistent throughout the psalm, dashed lines in parentheses are shown. In order to maintain the proper harmonic pro-gression, the accompaniment may still be played under the dashed lines even though there is no sung text. The cantor would then resume singing at the next appropriate phrase. Choose a tempo that will not disrupt the ow of the music.

    Singers must proclaim the verses with clarity so that the text is understood and its meaning is clear. A cantor can easily make use of rubato to emphasize specic words; a choir, however, will have to spend time on coordination to achieve the same effect.

    Whoever sings the psalm verses plays a vital role in the assem-blys participation at this point in the Liturgy of the Word.

    The Response as shown provides a written-out version of the psalm in three tonalities, with each repetition of the response ascending a half step. According to the Missale Romanum (no. 34), after the Epistle has been read, all rise, and the priest intones the Alleluia three times, raising his voice a step each time. All repeat the alleluia each time. If necessary, the psalmist intones the alleluia. Those guitar players with capos which cannot be quickly moved may use the line of chords underneath the capo chords. This psalm may also be performed without the key changes by starting at the segno (%).
