CHANTING THE PSALMS
A Practical Guide with Instructional CD

Also provides a history of Christian Psalm chanting and relates it to other chanting traditions. Most important, she teaches you "how" as you literally sing along with Cynthia & friends on the accompanying CD, which features easy melodies that will enhance your personal meditative practice.
