Henrietta Telfair - High & Lifted Up - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Led by Jeff Caylor and Leora Gardner, The Emancipated is the praise and worship band of Island Evangelical Community Church, based in Hong Kong, China. Jeff Caylor began his role at Island ECC in July of 2008. Prior to his experience here, Jeff independently released the album Okay in 2007. The album was named the 5th Best Album of 2007 by Christianity Today (USA), a unique achievement for a self-marketed, self-produced independent artist. His sophomore What Birds Dream in 2009 was inspired by his move from the USA to Asia. Leora Gardner moved to Hong Kong in October 2009, after serving as a violinist with Hillsong in Sydney, Australia for 2 years. Album credits include This is Our God (2008) and Faith + Hope + Love (2009). The Emancipated (self-titled) is the first 12-track worship experience created at Island ECC. The album contains 6 original songs, recorded live in October 2009 and then 6 electronically remixed arrangements of these songs immediately following in an Inchimmersion set.Inch Implied in the definition of the word InchemancipatedInch is the refreshing truth that we cannot free ourselves. Our freedom comes as a result of someone acting on our behalf, paying the price to set us free. We believe His name is Jesus Christ and, through His death and resurrection, we have the ability to courageously and beautifully embrace our liberation. This thread of freedom is woven through these 12 songs which have come from the heart of our church and specifically the following musicians Worship Leaders Jeff Caylor, Leora Gardner, Tim LaTour Backing Vocals Amanda Fung, Cheryl Kong Piano Jeff Caylor Keyboards Adriel Bote Electric/Acoustic Guitar Tim LaTour Electric Violin Leora Gardner Bass Guitar Charles Oh Drums Chris Glover Percussion Jonathan Lee.

God sometimes does His work with gentle drizzle, not storms. - John Newton, Writer of Amazing GraceThe same God that spoke the world into being, split the Red Sea, and caused the walls of Jericho to fall also works subtly, gently, and quietly - much like the still, small voice described in 1 Kings 19 12. He is grand, yet He is in the details. He is Lord of all, and yet came in human form. He holds the whole world in His hands, and still knows the number of hairs on our heads.As the first Hillsong Chapel album, Amazing Grace sets a tone of powerful simplicity. With stripped back, vocally-focused arrangements, this offers versions of songs like 'I Surrender' and 'O Praise the Name (Anástasis)', perfect for congregation settings of any size. The premiering single, 'Broken Vessels (Amazing Grace)' declares the timeless truth that is every believer's story, InchI once was lost, but now I am found.Inch No matter the season, whether it be through a grand storm or a gentle drizzle, God's amazing grace sustains us, and just like John Newton's 250-year old hymn, our only reasonable response must be praising Him.

In the Europe of the first half of the seventeenth century, instrumental music became a source of sonic and expressive experimentation. Influenced by vocal rhetoric, composers sought to replace words with a new musical language. The virtuosity of the instrumentalists developed, as did invention, improvisation and the search for surprising sonorities. Along with the organ or the harpsichord, the violin was the instrument of choice for experimenting with these new techniques. Italian and German composers of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries such as Farina, Schmelzer, Mealli, Buxtehude, Biber, Pisendel and Bach vied with each other in imaginativeness... The violinist Chouchane Siranossian and the harpsichordist Leonardo García Alarcón - both loyal Alpha Classics artists - have chosen to explore this repertory, here including Bach's sonatas BWV 1019, 1021 and 1023 among other pieces.
