BOOK EXCERPT:
One of the monuments of mid-sixteenth-century Scottish letters is Ane Compendeous Buke of Godlye Psalmes and Spirituall sangis, also known simply as the Gude and Godlie Ballatis, first published in Edinburgh in 1565 and reprinted for decades afterwards. Although a few secular tunes, like “Go from my window” and “John come kiss me now,” are inferred in the volume through the use of poetic parodies, well over a hundred of the collection’s self-described “sangis” give no musical direction whatsoever. A half-century ago, Helena Mennie Shire questioned whether the GGB’s music could be properly recovered, thereby reclaiming it “as a book of versions intended for singing.” Using contrafacta from the early Lutheran repertoire, from Coverdale’s Goostly Psalmes of 1535, and particularly the Forme of Prayers (the Scottish psalter) of 1564, this edition presents tunes and lyrics for all of the songs in the corrected GGB edition of 1578, uniquely preserved at the Huntington Library in San Marino, California.

BOOK EXCERPT:
During the Reformation, the Book of Psalms became one of the most well-known books of the Bible. This was particularly true in Britain, where people of all ages, social classes and educational abilities memorized and sang poetic versifications of the psalms. Those written by Thomas Sternhold and John Hopkins became the most popular, and the simple tunes developed and used by English and Scottish churches to accompany these texts were carried by soldiers, sailors and colonists throughout the English-speaking world. Among these tunes were a number that are still used today, including ’Old Hundredth’, ’Martyrs’, and ’French’. This book is the first to consider both English and Scottish metrical psalmody, comparing the two traditions in print and practice. It combines theological literary and musical analysis to reveal new and ground-breaking connections between the psalm texts and their tunes, which it traces in the English and Scottish psalters printed through 1640. Using this new analysis in combination with a more thorough evaluation of extant church records, Duguid contends that Britain developed and maintained two distinct psalm cultures, one in England and the other in Scotland.
