Virtual Psalmathon
Over a year ago some friends and I sang through all 150 psalms of David to raise money for Ochre, an oesophageal cancer charity (https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/pimlicopsalmathon). As Friday was St. Cuthbert’s Day, I was reminded of this and that Cuthbert, in isolation off the island of Lindisfarne, would recite the psalms with his students as they walked around the Northumbrian coast.
Surely now is the time for a virtual psalmathon; we need psalms now more than ever. My idea is simple: everyone records a psalm however they would like. Sung, spoken, Anglican chant, plainsong, any language – anything goes. I will then post them below on this table and we will get through them all (or I will). Just post them online wherever you’d like with the hashtag #virtualpsalmathon.
I’ve started with psalm 23 that we recorded on Sunday in Kennington.
