The King of Love My Shepherd Is (HL 35032246)

Infused with a pleasant folk spirit, this adaptation of the Twenty-third Psalm is a delight to the ear and a comfort for the soul. A supportive piano part supplies color to the beautiful Irish tune ST. COLUMBA. Conservative harmonies mingle with unison and two-part passages, creating a light and modern effect. The minor middle section moves into deeper harmonic water and engages the words with dramatic word painting. Sweeping the listener up in hopeful arms, the last verse touches on contemporary urban gospel chordal techniques. Innovative approach!
