Digital Splitleaf Psalter

A Modern Metrical Psalter

A split-leaf psalter is a printed volume in which the pages are cut in half in the middle so that the upper half forms a booklet of tunes, and the lower a booklet of texts. This layout would allow readers to match the texts with the tunes that they know best.

Just like a traditional printed split-leaf, the Digital Splitleaf uses the latest in digital technology to bridge the split, so to speak. It empowers you to select the metrical Psalm texts and tunes that you would like to sing. However, once a tune and psalm text have been selected, the Digital Splitleaf Psalter underlays your selected text beneath the music as you would expect from a more traditional psalter or hymnal. This makes reading the music and psalm text much simpler.
