I have composed a collection of songs
for church use and have never plugged them before. So, why not.
The book and CD is called Psalms for
the Church Year, Volume Ten, published by GIA. If you would like to
hear a sample, go to the following link. My favorite is selection
ten, Psalm 69: Lord in Your Great Love.

GIA's venerable Psalms for the Church
Year series has a fresh face with this new volume from Malcolm Kogut,
who brings his gift for melody and his comfortable jazz-tinged style
to this important new collection of psalms.
Malcolm fills some repertoire "holes" with these settings. He has set Psalm 47: "God Mounts His Throne to Shouts of Joy" for Ascension, and Psalm 45: "The Queen Stands at Your Right Hand" for Assumption, along with a mix of other common and lesser-known psalms. Using primarily ICEL refrains and several Grail translations, this volume is a worthy addition to the Psalms for the Church Year series. And, as with the other volumes, it includes reprint boxes of all refrains and a liturgical use index.
