Many alternative and emerging church communities have begun exploring ancient music and liturgical traditions despite a lack of high-quality, published liturgical music, which does not require (or even desire) an organ and a four- part choir. The Emergent Psalter serves to provide that resource. Featuring music written for two emerging communities (Transmission in New York and Church of the Apostles in Seattle), this book is an excellent resource for anyone producing alternative worship service or thinking of starting one.

One of the best new resources!,

This review is from: The Emergent Psalter (Paperback)
The Psalms are the churches ancient song book containing every emotion and experience known to man and relating them to God. Why is it that they have largely disappeared from our churches? This book can help to recapture the Psalms as a transformative sung prayer book. Isaac Everett has done a fabulous job capturing the sentiments encapsulated in each psalm with his antiphon - and done it in a creative, accessible way. This book would be a great addition to any churches service (Liturgical or not!)
5.0 out of 5 stars
Very well done,

This review is from: The Emergent Psalter (Paperback)
Isaac Everett's Emergent Psalter is fascinating. This was his Master's Thesis and is incredibly well-documented. The music is very simple and flexible. The tunes are lovely and easy to learn. It is a practical guide to psalm-singing if you are from a congregation that doesn't sing them. They can be sung with voices only, with guitar, keyboard, or any number of ways. Also, they are designed to be easy so that folks don't have to hold a piece of paper in front of them. If you are always looking for fresh ways to enhance your worship, this is a 'Must-buy.'
