Editorial Reviews
Lawn Griffiths, Tribune Newspapers (Arizona)
"It is wonderful jazz … beautifully peaceful and spiritual."
Product Description
Bob Ravenscroft had a vision for a special setting that would feature uncompromising, wholly improvisational modern jazz in a spiritual context. Talieisin-designed Ascension Lutheran Church has become that setting, with weekly Jazz Vespers services featuring pianist-composer Ravenscroft and his intuitive, exploratory trio in a candlelit atmosphere amid breathtaking modern architecture influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright. Jazz, with its wide range of expressiveness, set a new and wonderful mood for deeper thoughts and words of wisdom. Music truly meets and serves the Word as the players are joined by Randy Olson and Kate Adelman, whose dramatic readings pull from many sources of wisdom. Some Biblical, some poetic, and some drawn from other spiritual wells. The result is a unique aura of introspection in a quiet, beautiful atmosphere that is totally conducive to meditation and prayer: Jazz Vespers.
