Sing-along CDs from the New Zealand Hymnbook Trust
Do you want to sing contemporary New Zealand hymns in your worship services but don't have an accompanist in your congregation? These new CDs will get you singing.
Singing Love:
27 hymns and songs by Colin Gibson
$27.00
All items are played by Colin Gibson, Emeritus Professor of English, University of Otago, who is both composer of the tunes and writer of the words.
Singing Faith:
18 hymns and songs by Shirley Erena Murray
$27.00
All items are played by Roy Tankersley, Director of Music, St Andrew’s and St Luke’s Presbyterian churches, Palmerston North.
Music composers include: Colin Gibson, Jillian Bray, Ian Render, David Dell, Nigel Eastgate, Shona Murray
These two ‘sing-along’ compilations released in May 2005 support church and community singing of contemporary words and compositions. The words and tunes of all material are in these NZ Hymnbook Trust music books which are also available from Epworth Books:
- Alleluia Aotearoa (AA) published 1993 $27.95
- Carol our Christmas (COC) published 1996 $24.95
- Faith Forever Singing (FFS) published 2000 $27.95
The CDs:
-
support the introduction and learning of new tunes
-
provide new and contemporary words for New Zealand church and community, and
-
provide stimulus material for prayers/reflections and sermons
The format for each hymn is that the tune is played first, followed by the whole hymn.
We suggest that users of the CDs become familiar with the material and its format before using them in church worship and other occasions.
