The tune for Genevan Psalm 134 was paired with the long-metre (LM) text for Psalm 100 from the Scottish Psalter in the 17th century and is thus familiar to generations of Christians as OLD ONE HUNDREDTH. Many years ago I arranged the tune, and here it is performed by the Protestant Reformed Psalm Choir and returned to Psalm 134:
Nice! Still one of my favourite tunes for congregational singing!
ReplyDeleteAll too often nowadays we are hurried through a psalm. This rendition allows for deeper contemplation of the words which are well matched to the music. Thanks again, David, for giving the Psalms (and the Genevan tunes) the prominence they richly deserve and warrant.
