Topic: THE TEMPTATION,ASCENSION AND SONG FOR THOMAS

I have uploaded three new songs to myspace they are selected from a opera I composed and were written for a stage production called "Alleluia" a christian Rock opera meant to be performed in a large church with a choir and sound and lighting if you have a few minutes please give a listen,all the songs in the opera are based on the book of Matthew in the new testament I had to rearrange the lyrics so they followed the scriptures but maintained the message smile

Hi Russ
I think I remember you mentioning this rock opera you wrote a while back.
Is this a new recording of it?
Certainly reminds me abit of Jesus Christ Super Star I guess it's the Biblical contex.
You seem to draw alot of your insparation from Bible stories.
Liked the Instrumental Accention well I would smile
and Song for Thomas...
Thanks for sharing..

I'm working on a long piece of music myself more tracks than I care to mention smile
It's a long term project.

The mark of an artist is the ability write songs that don't sound the same.
