Ten! - New Songs for a New World

Posted by: David Barker in progressivemusic on  

Ten songs for use in progressive christian worshipHere's a tiny collection of music which I've posted elsewhere: Ten! New Songs for a New World. Download it here as a 732 kb pdf document.  If you're interested in reading more about the thinking behind these pieces, check out this post at nouspique.com.  They are intended for progressive worship and include a piece already familiar to West Hilligers (is that what we are?) called Quiet Descending. Listen to Linda Meyer sing it after some introductory remarks by Gretta.

If you're curious to know what the other ones sound like, you can listen to mp3's of me plunking on a piano if you go to the "music/liturgy" tag on nouspique and then work your way backwards through the posts.  The recordings ain't great, but if you use your imagination and pretend that there's a room full of people singing somewhere off in the distance, you might get an idea of what they sound like.

Hi Janet,

I don't know if we have. Maybe the choir's looked at it, but if we sang it during a service, I must have been away. Scott's the one who would know.
