What began as a BC Heritage project in 2008 continued and broadened in scope, to create not only a CD set of the psalms recorded, and an extensive resource website, but a two hour video outlining the entire project as well.

Along the way, Ron Mahonin, producer, touches on various aspects of the psalms’ origins, historical context, present day activities, and the psalm historical context in Doukhobor history.

The video is ably narrated by Ron’s son, A.J., who presents this as a journey of discovery into Doukhobor culture as evidenced by the psalm singing history.

One of the comments on the ‘Video Feedback forms’ sums up the entire project this way: ‘The Psalmist Project reveals the essence of psalms, the connection with the higher spirit and the healing energy force created.’

Copies of the CD set and Video will soon be available at the Doukhobor Discovery Centre.
