Over the summer I have been working on recording my first all piano CD called “Hopes Prayers and Lullabies” Now that it is finished I thought I would get back to posting instrumental reflections like I did last year.
This song is called “Not Forgotten” and was written as background music for video for our worship service. You can listen by clicking the play button,

If you enjoy this then consider buying Hopes Prayers and Lullabies. The proceeds from this CD go to help my wife and I in our effort to adopt a child. You can read more about it here.

You may have read or heard that my wife and I have started the process to adopt a child. I knew from the start that this would be an expensive process, so I began to think of ways we could offset the cost of adoption.
This is when the idea for a piano CD of lullabies was born.
The CD is nearly 45 minutes long and includes all original soft piano lullaby type songs. Some of these songs were recorded live, over several concerts this past summer, and some recorded back home.
They are not only great to help a child sleep during nap time, but also great for background music, personal devotional times, or anytime you need quiet, reflective music.
The CD will be available for both download online, and physical CD sales, and will be in a few stores. The cost will be $10.
The goal is for it to be ready around the second week of November, but I want to give you the chance to pre-order yours now. There is no cost to pre-order, I just need to have an idea of how many copies to order.
1. Be contacted once the CD’s are ready with instructions on how to get one.
2. Immediately download one track from the Lullaby CD

This week I am starting with the first of my Christmas instrumental reflections. My original plan was to have 8-10 of these done by Thanksgiving. With moving and other things, that has been pushed back a little bit. I do plan to get them out as soon as possible though, so keep listening. If you have a suggestion for a Christmas instrumental reflection send it in to me. I will choose one name, from those who leave suggestions, to send a CD with all the holiday instrumental reflections to when I am done.
