Singing the Psalms--A Workshop with Martin Tel

When we sing a psalm, rather than read or speak it, we claim an essential part of our Christian heritage. The book of Psalms is the Bible's own hymnbook and has been the songbook of the church since the church was born.

Martin Tel, Princeton Seminary’s  Director of Music,will lead this workshop. Tel is interested in congregational singing and the Psalter. His courses cover musical resources for the congregation, the Psalms in worship, and the philosophy of church music.In this workshop, participants will explore the many ways of singing psalms using settings from traditional, contemporary, gospel, African, Asian, and South American genres. Participants will receive a copy of Psalms for All Seasons, a single-volume anthology and largest collection of the psalms for use in Christian worship ever published.

This workshop is open to the public and the $25.00 registration fee includes lunch.  Click here for more information or to register.
