Organ, 3-staff
Each piece in Martin Ellis’s collection draws inspiration from a different psalm, amplifying the strength, comfort, peace, and wisdom found in these timeless texts. Three original settings—usable individually or as a suite—are joined by six hymn tune settings traditionally paired with psalm-based texts. True to Ellis’s vivid style, the collection offers wide stylistic variety, from a neo-baroque treatment of ST. ANNE to a vibrant gospel postlude on the spiritual “I Will Trust.”
