What a privilege it was for me to have the opportunity to do this project. I will never forget being in the studio as these tracks were recorded. Hearing the orchestrations played for the first time - having the music surround me as the musicians played, I was overwhelmed and deeply grateful.
This music reflects my heart and my desire to create stillness in the midst of the day’s busyness. It’s an underscore for my yearning to know Him as God and trust Him as Creator and Finisher. I pray it speaks to your heart as well. May it serve as an accompaniment to your journey; an invitation to be still and truly know Him.
A NOTE FROM JAY: Because many of these trax are quite rubato, with tempos that are very free and because in places, the orchestra is not playing at all - just the piano, I have decided to retain a small amount (at a lesser volume) of the original piano on the trax. This is in an effort to allow you, the live player to better "stay with" the trax and in the end make the trax more user friendly. The piano you hear is at a reduced volume and when you play the piano in live performance, it will more than cover the piano on the trax.
I hope this makes sense to you. Please let me know if you have any further questions. I hope you enjoy these trax and this music as much as I have. God's blessing on your ministry.
Jay
