Reviews

This is a collection of forty fairly familiar songs ... tastefully edited by Neil Jenkins ... Singers looking for songs whose texts have a scriptural base will find great treasure here ... The collection should be widely appreciated. Musical Opinion Summer 97 Sing Solo Sacred is a well-collected compendium with many well-known favourites that singers will love to perform and an audience will love to hear ... The accompaniments have been tailored to suit the church organ as well as the piano, and do echo the truth as far as possible when straddling two accompanimental mediums ... The album is available in high or low voice, reasonably priced and accessible to singers of all standards and for accompanists of a moderate ability. It offers a good and varied familiar selection of sacred repertoire, and takes range of voice into consideration in the transpositions. There is a helpful list at the front of the book giving directions as to which songs are appropriate for occasions such as Eastertide, weddings, funerals and others. It is not a definitive edition, nor is it meant to be, but it certainly serves a flexible purpose. Music Teacher, Sept 97
