Search - Nancy Scimone :: Quiet Place

'the quiet place' by Nancy Scimone is a refreshingly different take on peace and quiet. Nancy worked with Grammy Award-winning producer Bob Dawson in creating this natural, clear-as-the-sky, honest collection of psalms and original lyrics, arranged in a gently jazz and classical tapestry. You can hear this jazz and classical texture immediately on the first track, I Will Sing Your Strength, with a luscious horn solo and strings. The vocals sort of float on the orchestra like a seagull on the crest of a wave. The last tune, You Are the Potter, is a song of redemption, and received 'honorable mention' in the Billboard International Song Competition, with the line Trust Is the Bridge that Carries Us Home. Here's the chorus: When I lift my eyes to you, all is beautiful and all is new. I let go and fall your way, you are the Potter, I am the clay. Nancy writes, The messages of peace, mercy, new beginnings - these are truths for souls of all ages, all faiths, and all backgrounds. I think that essentially, people today are seeking goodness, peace, honesty, and hope -- and a reason to trust. I think that the quiet place offers this. Each day when you wake in the morning it is impossible to know what is ahead of you in your life journey. Some look at the early hours of the day as a time to celebrate and praise a new beginning. Others tend to wait until the evening to schedule a time of reflection and solitude. But regardless of the hour on the clock, we all look for that period of tranquility; the time during the day where we truly seek, THE QUIET PLACE. In order to enhance this experience, some may walk in the sunshine; others will soak in the tub. Some may light candles and others fall to their knees. For many, music is an important element for this time of inspiration. For this reason, I invite you to visit THE QUIET PLACE. This CD has a timeless essence that will surely stay with you as each new day unfolds. With comforting vocals, atmospheric orchestral arrangements, and the hopeful message inspired by the Psalms, THE QUIET PLACE is the perfect musical composition that transcends the call for inner vision, truth and grace. Every soul has the yearning to get away from the noise, the stress, the pollution of the world and to find that still small voice that exists in everyone s spirit.
