Shadow of the Cross

Shadow of the Cross

This past May I had the privilege to work with Ron and Shelly Hamilton to put together some new music for a new choral project they were doing. It was a short ride in a fast couple of weeks but I thoroughly enjoyed it. After getting the arrangements done they were sent off to the orchestrators and were speedily recorded and mixed at Air Borne Studios in the middle of June, just in time for the annual Majesty Musicollege seminar that was held this past week up in PA and IN. Looking back, I wonder how we got it all done in so little time.

Shadow of the Cross is a new sacred choral book featuring a new Easter musical entitled Lift Him Up. There is much variety in this collection, from the stirring piece called “Through the Eyes of Christ” to the majestic Irish sounds of “Higher Ground” and “Shadow of the Cross” to the more meditative feel of “Beautiful Hands.”  Get a copy of the book and CD here.

Here are two samples from the recording:
