If all goes to plan, I will be able to finish this task. Of the 10 steps I had to do for each psalm, 5 are now fully automated and produce the frame and content for the blog post in one operation.
Non automated steps are these:
- I need to review suspicious returns to the tonic against the Aleppo codex and
- clean up the automated musical score for presentation in reasonable chunks.
- Add comments on things I notice in the music,
- links to any performances of the Biblical melodies,
- add labels to the post,
- and verify the syllable counts through a second method - the first method has an occasional single count shortfall that I and my generic pretrained transformer haven't found yet. Of course, you probably wouldn't notice if I didn't have the syllable counts just right. After all there are some oddball bugs in the transcriptions too that sometimes lead to extra notes or missing notes. Performers and arrangers beware.
I will also give us a break from psalms occasionally put out some examples from the prose books -- at least my favorite passages, instead of the obscure begats which we did late spring earlier this year.
A table of contents for the psalms is emerging.
