#Psalmtweet #Psalter 6:1-2

Psalms 6:1-2

 Every verse is sung, even the inscription. Note here the plea for protection. Verse 1 is the inscription, sung as a single phrase. Verse 2 has two cola. There is no ornamentation in the second colon. This is in contrast to many examples that we will see of the revia mugrash following the last cadence in the verse in the three poetry books (Psalms, Proverbs, and the speeches of Job -- excepting the narrator's bits).

לַמְנַצֵּ֣חַ בִּ֭נְגִינוֹת עַֽל־הַשְּׁמִינִ֗ית מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד 1 For the leader on strings over octaves. A psalm of David.

There are limited performances available. The list of what was on the master DVD which I was given by Jonathan Wheeler, Editor of Suzanne Haïk-Vantoura's English book, is here.

All the music is available for every chapter of the Hebrew Bible in single PDFs, e.g. the psalms are here or combined PDFs. The combined are more recent. Feel free to use them native or as input to arrangements.
