Lori True - A Place At The Table - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Lori True - There Is Room for Us All [COMPACT DISCS] date 02/14/2006

Hartmut Lindemann very rarely records a CD. This new one is only his fifth in fifteen years, anxiously awaited by his fans. The meticulous care he devotes to the production is all the greater. He structures his programs as recitals in the old-fashioned sense, varied collections of witty, sensitive and virtuoso pieces; so it is no surprise that when he is asked about his artistic roots he only mentions a few role models from the early twentieth century. He plays the Arpeggione Sonata with guitar accompaniment instead of piano. This is not surprising, as the work was not composed for the viola, but for the arpeggione with piano. And his rendering of Schumann's D Minor Sonata is most unusual when played on a viola. This recording must surely overshadow many a violin version. The recital is rounded off by a little recording of Hubay's Zephyr, written in 1982 in strange circumstances.

With a passion for liturgical prayer, the vision of Catholic Social Teaching, and witness of Pope Francis, Lori True has created a collection of sung prayer for communities who want to embrace the unrelenting love of God and the deep challenge of Christ. Here you will find songs for gathering, communion, times of grief, doubt, action, and celebration, all fashioned with texts that foster deep reflection and her signature, accessible melodies, all ready to serve a wide variety of communal gatherings. Take some time to explore Show By Your Life, and discover a very unique and prophetic collection of liturgical music that the church desperately needs.
