Notes: |
These two stanzas form a frame for the reading of Ps. 44. St. 1 may be sung confidently. St. 2, particularly
if sung after the reading of the psalm, should be sung softly, humbly. Lower voices can accompany the
melody (sung in parallel fourths) by singing the drone (with a slight scoop and guttural attack), or they may
double the treble parts an octave lower. |
