Psalmcasting in the news
Congratulations to Lawton, Oklahoma, pastor and blogger John Owen Butler for getting a mention in a Business Week article on religious podcasting. John's podcast can be found at psalmcast.blogspot.com, and it features recordings of the singing of the Psalms by choirs from around the world.
His latest entry is Psalm 98, set to the tune "Desert," a joyous tune I've also heard used for the hymn "O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing." (The tune is Common Meter, so it could be used for a vast number of hymns.)
Thanks, Mike!
The tune is also known as "Lyngham" by Thomsas Jarman (1762-1862) http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/multimedia/mutopia/JarmanT/Lyngham/Lyngham.mid
How cool!
