      No thanks. The religious vote of Saint Cafasso prohibits to pray for oneself, instead only for the others.Lord will prize in reward the penitent. sa😅

      ​@stefaniaargento8183 , what's ironic is this very Psalm (and virtually all of the Psalms) include prayers 🙏 for ourselves.
      Additionally, I'm asking King David 🤴 of Israel to pray🙏 for me, which is different 🙏 from praying for myself.
      Stefanie Argento, you should listen to the words of this Psalm to realise that it is a prayer by King David for King David 🤴 (albeit not exclusively for himself)

    To the team I write:
    Hello, and hello again.
    I love this series, I love how you sing the psalms in this manner, but I have a suggestion that I would like you yo try, if you do not like how it sounds, I understand.
    Everytime the soprano voice (Highest female voice) mentions God, and only God, let her sing the high A, one sneak-line above the stave, and another female voice on Bb, that being in the stave.
    When the song mentions anything related to ungodliness, like: Vanity; Unrightousness; Evil, let the bass be emphasized, but in that case make the high voices go mezzo-piano, or: moderately-soft.
    I thought of this everytime I hear ya sing, I feel like it would be a good way to symvolize the Glory of God, and the defeat of unrightousness. What do you think, try it out, listen to it, and it might just work.
    Wish you the best.
    Best Regards.

      Anthony,
      We have been discussing ways we can incorporate musical painting into the psalms and will perhaps be trying to test out ideas like this in the future! Thanks for the suggestion!

    • @novdecjanfeb

      As a bass singer, I would oppose assigning the 'evil, vain, unrighteous' parts to the bass voice. Musical painting can be in any voice, whether 'evil' or 'good'. Are you advocating 'bassism'?

    The harmonization sounds autotuned or made by tech and is distracting. Why not just do melody and drone (human voice with the words) or simply melody?

      I am sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction with this piece. The quality you are referring to that sounds artificial is perhaps because there were only two of us singing four voices. I’ve noticed that when I layer my voice it sounds more artificial than having 4 separate vocalists. We have extremely limited resources and very little music production experience so be patient with us while we learn and get better.
