- Using the first 2 Murray tones in the single-volume edition of the Liturgy of the Hours, I demonstrate how I go about chanting the Psalms. Give it a try! Turn your life into worship! Sanctify time!
Thank you so much!! From the time I was a child, I always wondered how the responsorial psalm singers at Mass knew how to put melody to any Psalm. Like they sounded similar depending on the Mass, but I couldn't figure it out. Today your video resolved this mystery!
Now I can combine my two main loves (music & liturgy) when I'm on my own. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial. It has helped make my praying of the Divine Office immensely and given even greater joy.
I am so thankful for your teachings on chanting.
It’s what God is leading me to do with my prayer time this season.
Thank you for sharing this discipline that is not taught in most Christian churches.
May the Lord Bless you and keep you in all His ways for your obedience and dedication.
Thank you thank you thank you!!! This clear instruction will be such a benefit that I struggle to adequately express it.
I love praying the literacy, thankyou for helping me enhance my prayer
Thanks, I love praying the hours, but I would much rather sing them. Grace to you!
Brilliant explanation and execution. Thank you.
Very helpful, your instruction will really vitalise my reading of the LOTH for my whole family. Thank you!
I know it's been 2 years since you posted this video, but thank you for making this video!
Greetings and peace from me my dear brother.
It's really useful keep on update,
my dear unknown friend.
God bless you.
This was a great video. Thank you!
This was very useful, thank you very much
Thank you so much for this video!!!!! God bless
You are so welcome!
Thank you for this
This was great! Thank you! I’ve never seen something so simple and practical to learn. Where can I learn to read that basic music to know all those tones??
Thank you!!!Been saving up to buy the DivineOffice book on Amazon do you have more tutorials on how to pray/ use it?
Again thank you so much
Do you have sheet notation for the Jewish scale tones you have made? I’m not musically trained so I have no clue how to arrange the scale into a tone that would sound good, but I have always LOVED that sound and it would be amazing to apply it to the Psalms (which are of Hebrew origin anyway!)
very useful
Thank you for sharing this. How did you learn this?
Thank for watching. I learned from various liturgical guides including the one at the back of the liturgy or the hours. Plus I was cantor at my parish for some 12 years. God bless.
Thank you brother! I pray the Divino Afflatu rubrics i guess it’s called. I have a question how or where can I learn the chant for Latin? Especially in that version.
Thank you for your help and instruction. However, I wasn’t able to follow entirely. It would help to get more of an intro to the book that you are using. Thanks again.

Very nice, and very helpful. Thanks.
Thank you for watching.
great video. also, what are the pitches of the "Jewish scale" that you played? interesting sound, i am a musician and can improvise or compose psalm tones on such scale for my personal use. thanks for your time.
Can you sing any hymn you want or does it have to be the one in the book relevant to the day?
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan Thank you, I am in Ireland so perhaps things are done differently. I own the Divine Office Volumes I-III (there are four in America three in Europe) and at the back of mine there are no hymn sheets with notation. It's often difficult to know how to sing the hymn.
Hi Bro. Vic. please can you make chant Murray tunes....only...tnx...
My copy of Christian prayer doesn't have the music in the back... Any ideas?
Can you advise me on how to go about finding a local group that gathers to worship this way. Is it only found in the Catholic House? Or is it best as a private form of worship only. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for your reply. God bless you.

Great thanks, Victor. Have they re-done the Office since the 70s? If I am praying with our priest (who often uses iBreviary), can we stay in-sync if I am using the one-volume edition from 1976?
As far as I know, ibreviary uses the four-volume edition so only morning and evening prayer would likely sync up.
Not sure if they have revised the single -volume. I like doing the complementary psalms repeatedly during the week to deepen my understanding of them.
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan You should look into the Russian Orthodox Psalm tones as we as the Greek Orthodox. But thank you for this it is so helpful.
Where can I find this liturgy of the hours book ?
I have been looking for this…. How do you know which tone to pick for a particular psalm?
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan I mean is there a specific tone for a particular psalm or ranges of psalms? Or you can choose however you wish?
Is this similar to the Book of Prayer used by Anglicans? Is this book available anywhere?
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan thanks!
Where can I learn how to read these sheets?
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan that would be wonderful indeed 🙏🏾. This is exactly what I have been looking to learn.
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan please make a video for sight reading thank you
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan maybe both?
I have no clue about music theory so if you could make a video about it It would be really helpful
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan wow thank you so much
God bless you brother
I hope your channel prospers
Question: Why monotone? Basic speech is not monotone, so why use monotone as the default for chanting? Isn't the point of chant to raise the action above mere reading or speaking? Yet basic speech is more fine than the monotone sections of chant.
This is especially true when heard by others. I realize this video is primarily about devotional chanting, but the point remains that listening to monotone chanting is distinctly less pleasant than listening to regular speech patterns.
So, why not use other tones for those sections of each line and the prayers which are here presented in monotone?
Hearing or chanting - - - / \, is fine, but hearing or chanting - - - - - -- - -- -. Is less pleasant than just saying it normally.
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan ,
Thanks
I have been doing some research on WHY Christian churches (Roman Catholic, Orthodox, and others) sing parts of all the liturgy. It is clear that part of the answer is this tradition that comes from Judaism, and the psalms are evidence of that. I am wondering how much came from Mithraism (the religion where many parts of the mass came from).
I really like your explanation. Very helpful to many. May I politely request, please receive a manicure. It is ok for anyone and inexpensive
Chant? That's how heathen Buddhists pray. They chant..
Wouldn't it be better just to sing the Psalms.
@@WatchersfortheSonofMan okay, thanks for the explanation
Creepy hand in thumbnail....no life behind the eyes/ flat affect face in the channel photo.
Sorry cannot move further past that.
