Be Still My Soul
I sang three songs on Dave Shrewsbury's second record of Christian praise and worship music.
Currently available through:
- Dave's website
- Community United Methodist Church, Wayland, MA
- United Methodist Temple, Beckley, WV
- The Christian Bookstore, Beckley, WV (at Cranberry Crossing Center)
This is Dave's second release, a much anticipated followup to his 2004 cd "Christmas By The Piano" which is completely sold out! "Be Still My Soul" is centered around his own solo piano arrangements of beloved traditional and contemporary hymns including "Be Thou My Vision," "Great Is Thy Faithfulness" and "On Eagle's Wings."
Renowned fiddler Hanneke Cassel graces two songs and guest vocalists are the feature of several arrangements. From Beckley, WV, "In This Very Room" is offered by Becky Johnson, and powerhouse Chip Atha delivers "His Eye is on the Sparrow."
I am singing several tracks, including "J'irai La Voir Un Jour" and another Dave and Chrissy signature medley he's calling "Maria By Moonlight" can you guess what two pieces it's made of?!
I can't say enough about Dave's talents at the piano. Every arrangement is so sincere and heartfelt. He uses the entire range of the piano, and can evoke emotions that just can't be expressed through any way other than music!
If you appreciate great performances and sweeping melodies you'll want to check out this record. Also makes a great gift for anyone that loves Christian hymns and meditative music.
