Product Description

He appeared and the soul felt its worth. Kathleen Ryan's arrangement of the French religious song by Adolphe Adam, performed on her Christmas album, The Rebirth of Light. Kathleen's notes: "Again, preferring silence to constant motion. Ill confess that I was not inclined to record this piece. My husband really wanted it included on The Rebirth of Light, but I resisted because I had first heard it sung by a soprano with super-warbly vibrato. I thought the song was sort of tacky, although I did recognize that the tackiness came from the singing and not from the music itself. When I explained all this to him, he pointed out that any arrangement I created would never be tacky and that it wouldnt have warbly vibrato either! I promised to play with it and just hear what I could create. I started with a sort of American Methodist hymnal 4part chordal arrangement. And then the rolled chords appeared and away I went!" Lyrical, spacious, spiritual. Suitable for use in church.
