A Joyful Noise: Metrical Psalms

I transcribed about 30 metrical psalms, most in English, plus one in French and one (very famous one) in German for a class at the 2022 VdGSA Conclave.

The rich array of 4-part psalm settings by Tallis, Ravenscroft, and many others are stunning when played on the viol. We'll take advantage of their relatively simple texture to develop a beautiful resonant sound and experiment with text expression through the bow. In this online class you'll play your part against each of the others while muted, with the option to switch instruments. You can even sing along!
