Dave Meder- New American Hymnal (CD)
New American Hymnal is a collection of worship songs, not in a religious sense, but rather for the American civic and cultural experiment. New American Hymnal represents my third album as a bandleader, and the first full album with this new quartet configuration. My last project, Unamuno Songs and Stories (2021), featured the same rhythm section (Marty Jaffe on bass and Michael Piolet on drums), but only included trumpeter Philip Dizack as a guest on two works.
Tracklist:
- modern gothic
- invocation (call to worship)
- chorale (RFK on the death of MLK)
- adoration (of all that is good)
- chorale (disillusionment)(feat. Marty Jaffe)
- chant (our collective inaction)
- hope is the thing with feathers (feat. Isabel Crespo Pardo)
- chorale (press onward, abide with me)
