Product Description

Looking to add a little (or a lot) of "spice" to your playing? Then this collection of 10 hymns transformed by salsa and samba should fit the bill! A great introduction to Afro-Cuban and Brazilian styles of playing, these arrangements will improve your sense of rhythm like nothing else can. From lovely ballads ("Softly and Tenderly," "Blessed Assurance") to bluesy New Orleans influenced jazz ("Just a Closer Walk with Thee," "Near the Cross") to salsa ("And Can It Be?," "I Sing the Mighty Power of God") — this collection stands as one of the most unique sacred piano books ever published! All arrangements are intended to work for solo piano, but would shine even more with rhythm section and percussion. (Rhythm/horn parts not included in book.)

Testimonials

I want to commend you for your fantastic work integrating some Latin flavor to church music. I'm from Brazil and serve as the Minister of Music and Worship at Walnut Street Baptist Church in Louisville, KY. Just read your bio and praised God for your life. Press on, brother.

—Hiram Rollo, Louisville, KY

Craig’s Salsa collection is fantastic! We are using it with our young musician’s rhythm section at the Children’s Home. They love it. Each arrangement maintains the character of the original song while taking you to an even greater worship experience. Thanks Craig. Keep writing. God is using you to bless us all.
