Designed for church use, this series opens the door for another approach to sacred music for corporate worship as well as for private contemplation. It further explores the harmonic vocabulary of the jazz idiom while preserving their traditional melodic settings. Integrity of original carol is preserved within composer’s personal “spin” on it with carefully crafted, fresh harmonic structures. Intended for worship use.
