"Awesome! This is one of the few recordings that has ever made me stop what I was doing and stand listening in a store. Very relaxing smooth music, just enough into the realm of "interpretation" to be fresh and interesting without going anywhere near "unrecognizable." These are old familiar favorite hymns, but played in an updated style with modern instrumentation. Think "Enya" or "Yanni" in a quiet mood. All songs are instrumental, so it makes great background music at work - people who don't know hymns just think its incredibly beautiful music. Turn it up loud at home (or use headphones) and you hear lots of subtle nuances that enhance the listening experience. If you like hymns, don't pass this one up."
