I hope that anyone who knows how to set English Psalms to modal tones will consider becoming a Chabanel Guest Composer likethese kind & amazing folks.
There are a LOT of people out there who appreciate simple settings to very simple tones, WRITTEN OUT. The more I see of the Church music scene, the more I think "the SIMPLER the BETTER" when it comes to Responsorial Psalms. And simple can be so beautiful.

it would be a great privilage to contribute to your great work and would like to submit my own silly attempts.. i am also thinking the more straight forward the better. the work already done for this project is outstanding.
again jeff, thanks for all you do for us in the trenches!
Jeff, besides English and Spanish (and Portuguese, for sure!), are there other languages you've considered working with? Have there been requests for material in them?
