Then Sings My Soul (Episode 1) is the latest BBC programme to feature the psalms and the RPCI – this time focusing on Trinity RPC. Marie-Louise Muir traces the history of hymn singing, with the bit on psalms starting about 16 minutes in.
A few quotes from the presenter:
“It made me feel that while I may have been raised a Roman Catholic, inside in my heart, having sung these Psalms I think I must be a Covenanter”.
“What I absolutely did not miss was any accompaniment”.
“Hearing the Reformed Presbyterians singing breathed new life into the psalms for me”.
