Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book revitalizes Anglican chanting by delving into the history, form, and rhythmic structure of the Psalms and Canticles. The author reveals that the prevailing system of chanting suppresses the natural flow of the words, imposing instead a rigid metrical structure. By integrating the principles of free rhythm and antiphony, this book provides a method of chanting that respects the unique character of the Psalms. It recovers the original elasticity of the chant, allowing greater freedom of expression and a truer representation of the text's emotional depth. The insights offered in this book will inspire a renewed appreciation for the beauty and power of Anglican chanting.
