Two Song Collage Prelude 20 and Prelude 21

There are no hymns or chants here, this is music for everyone's enjoyment and relaxation. However, the music makes you think and get in touch with your feelings. While it goes right for the heart, it is not syrupy or sweet, but rather quite deep.

This recording is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency.

Testimonials
From ON DISC AND TAPE, in THE TRIANGLE of Mu Phi Epsilon International Professional Music fraternity, Ernestine Boss, reviewer:

"The light-footed Toccata is in complete contrast to the preceding piece. It is full of energy and an incessant, compelling movement that reminds one of the repetitive force of Chopin's "Raindrop" Prelude. The feeling of vitality and joy of living is maintained throughout, and I found it a delight from start to finish."

"In Prelude 24, ..dissonances resolve effortlessly and smoothly...leaves one with a sense of peace and security in the expectation of enfolding goodness."

From a review by Kurt Westerberg, DePaul University, "An inspiring and intriguing blend of musics as diverse as plainchant, 20th century French organ music, new age, pop, and ethnic."

Artist Profile
A graduate of Allentown High School (PA), now William Allen High, Sally Daley received both her bachelors and masters degrees in music from Northwestern University. She has done additional study in organ and electronic music at DePaul University. Now Director of Music Ministry at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Chicago, IL, this Franciscan uses MIDI to enhance their liturgies by creating the illusion of organ and orchestra, or keyboard and orchestra along with the singing of the choir.

Her use of MIDI in liturgy really began in 1992, when a group of parishioners complained to the Pastor that the organ played before Mass interfered with their private prayer. She wrote a series of Preludes for synthesizer, and played them before Mass. They were very well accepted by parishioners, including the complainers. From there things expanded greatly.

"The song has a mind of its own...What I've learned to do over the years is...go with it."

Although his work is influenced by the likes of Deodato, Chick Corea, and the rhythmic styles of Brazilian music, Jeff Hall's musical career began more simply--as the audio engineer of his church. There, he was able to work with a variety of singers and musicians, inspiring him to produce recordings of his own work. He started his first project with a recent Hawaiian vacation still fresh in mind, and so adapted his name's Hawaiian phonetic into "keope".

As keope, Jeff has produced nine albums: two LPs, five cassettes, and two collaborative CDs, "Worlds Apart" and "Rejoice! and Be Thankful." He lives with his wife in San Diego, California, and is currently at work on his next project.
