Great songs, put a few old hymns that Crowder's redone in this book over some of his better original songs (disappointing).Unfortunately, this is the only Crowder sheet music I'm aware of.Great music.Want to buy The David Crowder*Band Collection (Piano/Vocal/Guitar Artist Songbook) [Paperback] at other amazon sites?

AS a fellow believer and musician, I find the other review appalling!!If one cannot listen to the trilogy and hear the artistry and the lyrical genius Michael -pardon the pun-brings to the table-one has a problem.His fresh look at the life of Christ-is refreshing!!I wonder why the author of the other review has to steel himself to listen to such conscise and masterful lyrics that delve into the mystery of Christ's birth, death and resurrection.Michael is a folk singer -and though he may not be the greatest singer or musician, he is a notch above the rest of the Christian Singer songwriters simply for his heartfelt and wonderful wedding of lyrics and melody.How can onel listen to "Joseph's Song and not be moved?How can one listen to "The Promise" and not be amazed at how well Michael delivers his theology and takes our breath away with his poetry?who cannot listen to "Why" and not be moved to tears?who can listen to "What Will It Take" without examining his own soul?THIS MAN IS AN ARTIST-HE PAINTS VIVID PICTURES WITH LYRICS AND MELODY-AND LIKE A VAMPIRE HUNTER DRIVES THE POINTS TO OUR HEARTS AND MINDS.THIS IS NOT CCM PAP EAR CANDY-THIS IS ARTISTIC MUSIC WITH A VISION OF HELPING US APPRECIATE CHRIST AND HIS DEATH FOR OUR SINS.

![The Alfred Burt Christmas Carols: 50th Anniversary Edition [Paperback]](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_vfdlIroDRTssgQH_HQNLYqD2YMD4hOBNw44hbnpXVk1qrPcGxew1DeEYGL9x95xPrlE11T15mn4KceQZnd5qxFBJAyM0U80GCkRp-W59ldGAN2-Bp9kKUk-_qP_FYfDZc=s0-d)
This is a very interesting edition of the 15 Alfred Burt Christmas carols.It includes not only the original music and lyrics, but also images of the original greeting cards which were sent out between 1942-54.Burt died too soon at the age of 33, and included in this book are writings by his wife Anne which tell about the carols and her life with Alfred.Many people already know "Some Children See Him," "Caroling, Caroling," and "The Star Carol," but "All On A Christmas Morning" and "Come, Dear Children" are just as great.Burt was the son of an Episcopal rector, but he was also influenced by jazz, so you find both hymnody and modern harmonies in his work."The Star Carol" is not only his masterpiece, it is also one of the greatest carols ever written.Want to buy The Alfred Burt Christmas Carols: 50th Anniversary Edition (Piano/Vocal/Guitar Songbook) [Paperback] at other amazon sites?

![Worship Suite for Trumpet and Piano: Instrumental Duet Series, Book 2 [Paperback]](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_shTcMdjbktiPj9RelWR4THdv_2JfrZfki6BURgkJq7-F6u-5bkDh-TK6eTQtBt3hZ25z8BL740KZRcWSJ0i7rJnz8XfCyk3o6KFK2KN5sYHjZIcVUFbxUf9EBFXF55iBk=s0-d)
If you have a trumpeter and pianist in your church, this is an excellent duet book.The arrangements are fun and not too demanding on the piano, requiring decent proficiency but not excessive virtuosity.Lloyd Larson always, in my experience, does great work and this book is no exception.Also, the trumpet part is included on a separate removable section, so you only need the one book to perform the duets.Some of the pieces do get a little high on the trumpet, but this tends to be exception, and in most cases the trumpet player can just drop down a third or whatever and still sound good.As a church pianist, I've had some of the most enjoyment playing pieces from this book with our trumpet player, and the congregation has loved the arrangements.

The whole "More Songs for Praise and Worship" series are the best . . . anyone purchasing one should get them all . . . tremendous resource for a church wanting good theology in music and good connection with multiple generations - very "acoustic" - not over-the-top contemporary.:-)

I just started playing piano again after a 20-year break, and this book was way too difficult for me.I used to play many hymns, but the music in this book is much more difficult, requiring you to play a great deal of sharps and flats.I used to play "Just As I Am," for example, with almost no sharps and flats, but this book requires you to play them continuously with this song.This could be a great book for experienced musicians, but if you're still getting up-to-speed -- like me -- you might want to try another hymn book.

Very easy to play and enjoyable.My daughter, who has never taken piano except for 6 months when she was a child, is enjoying learning to play.She is in the church choir and likes to be familiar with hymns BEFORE practice.Good investment.
