Summary
Details

This is a selection of psalms and other portions of Holy Scripture, arranged for chanting by W. Shelmerdine. Originally published in 1843, ""Chant-Book"" provides a fascinating glimpse into 19th-century Christian liturgical music. The arrangements are intended to facilitate congregational singing and enhance devotional experience.

The book offers carefully chosen verses and refrains set to simple, accessible melodies suitable for both trained choirs and amateur singers. ""Chant-Book"" is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of Christian worship music, the use of psalms in religious practice, and the musical traditions of the Victorian era. It provides a snapshot into the musical tastes and religious practices of the time.
