St. Martin’s Psalter, Ecumenical Edition (2004)

according to The Revised Common Lectionary, Years A, B, C

A Collection of over 550 Pointed Psalms, Psalm tones & Antiphons based on Hymn Tunes and Other Familiar Melodies

St. James Music Press, © 2004, 2007

"Mr. Thomas Pavlechko's St. Martin's Psalter should go a long way in helping our congregations participate in and enjoy singing the psalms. His instructions are concise and clear, the pointing is natural and musical, and the use of familiar seasonal hymn tunes make the chants easily accessible and singable. I recommend it."

William Teague, Organist/Choirmaster Emeritus, St. Mark's Cathedral (Episcopal), Shreveport, Louisiana; Concert Artist with Karen McFarlane

"These fresh settings give new life to congregational psalm singing. We [at the Choristers Guild] are especially pleased that children's choirs can serve as leaders."

Jim Rindelaub, Executive Director, Choristers Guild, Dallas, Texas

"The St Martin's Psalter is a great hit! The Dean and I both expected it not to be and are almost ecstatic at the response. People really sing the antiphons, the choir loves the harmonizations and I have used just about every imaginable configuration of the harmonies to accommodate the choir on Sundays. After years of struggle that had me on the verge of asking permission to skip the Psalms and use hymns (I even used improvisational liturgical dance as a threat), this Psalter has restored the balance between choir and congregation and made the Psalms singable and enjoyable for everyone."

Michael Burroughs, Director of Music, Trinity Cathedral (Episcopal), San Jose, California
