New Songs of Celebration Render

New Songs of Celebration Render explores the essential yet profoundly diverse role congregational song play across cultures and denominations. In his passionate pursuit of congregational song practices the world over, C. Michael Hawn calls all who lead worship to consider the variety and wealth of congregational music available to the church. Hawn brings together renowned practitioners and scholars-including James Abbington, John L. Bell, Emily R. Brink, Kathleen Harmon, Lim Swee Hong, Deborah Carlton Loftis, David W. Music, Greg Scheer, and Pablo Sosa-to reveal their diverse repertoire and practices, allowing readers to find individual experiences mirrored within these pages while also learning new perspectives. A CD featuring music representing this broad range of repertoire is also included.
