Synopsis

I WILL NOT SING ALONE is a deliberately eclectic collection of words and music from different ages fused in contemporary arrangements. There are ancient texts and modern texts, simple and sophisticated. There are choral anthems, folk tunes and contemporary syncopated melodies. The songs include, exclamations of praise, meditative reflections on the love of God, and laments for the loss of a child and for countries at war. These are songs of faith which are intended for everybody: Not a high octane choral album or a selection of psuedo-celtic escapist ditties, but songs of engagement with life and with God, all grounded in the passion and pain of Christian love.
