"The Tenor Tune Book" is a refined collection of vocal descants designed to enrich the traditional performance of hymns and psalms. Curated by a distinguished group of musical and ecclesiastical experts, including Harvey Grace and Martin Shaw, this work serves as a bridge between the historical richness of ancient psalters and the evolving needs of choral arrangement.
The volume presents a diverse array of melodies, blending newly composed descants with those recovered from historical sources. By focusing on providing varied and sophisticated harmonic textures, the collection offers unique tools for elevating congregational singing and choral performances. This work is an invaluable resource for organists, choirmasters, and students of liturgical music, offering practical methods for enhancing the aesthetic and spiritual depth of the worship service. Its focus on the heritage of the psalter ensures that these "old and new" tunes remain grounded in a deep tradition of sacred song, making it a significant contribution to the repertoire of choral accompaniment and ecclesiastical harmony.
