A 12th New and Better
Biblically Psalmsing
I’ll list 11 or so. I’m sure there
are more. Then I’ll describe #12
1—Book of Psalms for Singing—RPCNA—sues
other tunes
2—Dutch Doors—all in 8 syllable ‘translations’
3--Lutheran chant. In worship
there’s editing and combining, and are some (imprecatory) left out?
4—Lining out. Elder sings, others repeat. More mature would
be to have a book each sings too. Even more mature would be to have them by
heart, ans Rosenstock says English gentlemen did (‘Out of Revolution).
5—Gregorian Chant, etc. Hardly the
tempo of ‘War Songs of the Prince of Peace’.
6—What did they do in medieval
times, when Psalms were sung continuously by monks all over Europe?
7—What do they do at Uri Brito’s
Psalm Roars.\?
8—Someone one the internet (sic)
claims that each Hebrew letter is a note.
9—Haik-Vantoura surely has some
Psalms. She and her people claim that there were extra dots in the Masoretic
text that indicated musical notation for the whole Hebrew text.
10—Dr./ Maddox sings them in
Hebrew.
11—Pick and choose some tune.
12—Here’s the new stuff. James Jordan used to send out structures of
Psalms, with repeated words, and matching words highlighted. He indicated
Hebrew Cadence (Cascione: ‘Repetition in the Bible’ for each. This made a picture, and was very
instructive. NOW, AND THIS IS IMPORTANT
Jonathan P. warren claims that we can do reverse cymatics. That’s one.
We know that sounds can produce geometric figures in sand (even water:
Dr. Emoto (spelling?). Can geometric
figures, struc tures, produce music? Two.
Maybe if we have a musical intuitive.
One of my therapist has hands that can detect energy imbalance and flows
in my body. I can’t do it. She can. (The
book to read is by Upledger: ‘Craniosacral Therapy: Touchstone for Natural
healing.0 Three: Rich Bledsoe says that many women have intuitive senses that
most men don’t. Could these be tapped? Four. At a Biblical Horizons conference,
JBJ brought a composer. He could make a song from the last 4 digits of one’s
phone number—the notes. Five. If there are 12 instances of a word in Hebrew
Cadence in a Psalm, could the 7 white keys and 5 black be sprinkled on the
instnaces, ,one per, to make the beginning of a tune?
I’m sure there are more ways. I’ve
found 117 plus the last verses of 150 to be vere ‘out-lineable’ and useful. I
use Psalm Tone D, which shows high, low, middle notes for the last three of
each line (I split lines). But that’s parroting. It’s like the chapters of
Exodus that relate God’s instructions to Moses for building the Tabernacle,
followed by chapters exactly repeating that they did that. But we have a Tabernacle of David that
requires more maturity. ‘I will respond,
though I must be changed’: Rosenstock.
Our howls become music: Teaching
Company on Jazz. Levitical system, animals howl as they’re killed becomes
Psalms—that’s another example.
God is our song and strength—How Shall
We Then Sing Psalms?
(Excerpt from being written ‘Opus
53: Conduct,’ being an attempt to orchestrate the next era of human history. It
needs re-simplification for group work, and an app to be downloaded by
billions. This is a Toscanini effort. He
was a symphony conductor. The story goes that the visiting conductor fell ill,
and when people wondered what to do, other said ‘Let AArture (first violinist)
do it. He knows everyone’s part’.}

OK, I claimed that it might be possible to musically intuit aPsalm tune from James B. Jordan's structures of Psalms.

Here we have a report from researchers who found that monkey brains reacted differently to various art forms.
Research continues, or you can respond not.
