From the Album’s Liner Notes:\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

In God\u2019s Time, <\/em>I sought an uplifting, challenging, and personal program to reveal new musical realms through my transcriptions of Bach\u2019s keyboard music. The 16 tracks feature well-known compositions alongside rarely recorded ones.<\/p>\n

There are many interpretations of Bach\u2019s music by renowned artists to explore and ideas to internalize, which early in my career I found musically overwhelming. I took a break from programming it to allow time to study his music through unknown masters on various instruments, read more about his life, and further explore the place of music in society through writings of John Cage, Toru Takemitsu, Hazarat Inyat Kahn, and others.<\/p>\n

Bach\u2019s chosen musical keys typically have significance. For example, E-Flat Major (three flats) represents the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. That said, Bach regularly changed keys depending on the instrumentation. Likewise, my key changes are suited for playability.<\/p>\n

An album of renewal, the title track comes from a gorgeous early funeral cantata, bringing an uplifting solemn and hopeful mood to a somber event. May we find peace in the sounds and actions we create.<\/p>\n
