Psalm 96, played by King David's Harp, D.C., 1991

From a 1991 interfaith concert at the National Catholic Shrine by the Interfaith Conference of Washington, D.C. King David's Harp plays a setting of Psalm 96 by Suzanne Haik-Vantoura based on her decoding of biblical musical markings. Musicians are Karen Ashbrook on hammered dulcimer, Ken Giles on violin, David Scheim on harp, another woman on harp substituting for Kira Davis, Judy Sapon and Anita Wolf vocals, and a trumpet player.

@cagun7 lol how very humble of you to say :P i thought it was pretty though, sure there are better and lesser people out there and more and less skilled, but there is always someone better then you, i think the music is more about the sounds and words being played then it is how well someone is doing in someone elses opinion. thx for uploading this though, very soothing to the soul :D

The harp was too low volume i could played it better just popping in without a priory test ,but it should be played like a solo guitar."Load and clear"

I don't believe this! My favorite Psalm setting by Suzanne Haik-Vantoura, performed live...why didn't anyone ever tell Suzanne (or me, Suzanne's aide) of this?!? Or did they and I'm just not remembering?

Anyway...now that I've picked my jaw up off the floor, why not drop over to "rakkav" and especially "teamim" for videos of more of Suzanne's work? And thanks so much for the original performance and the video!
