Band Music for Evangelism
Edited by Brian Bowen
PrefaceOnce again Christmas approaches with the reminder that mankind's redemption is made possible through Christ.
In this issue we welcome British Salvationist Michael Babb to the American Band Journal's list of composers. His The Shepherds' Story, along with the three other items in this issue gives truly diverse program options. Two well-known classics, Gesú Bambino and March from The Nutcracker, are joined by Terry Camsey's exquisitely beautiful Arrangement, In Heavenly Peace, which may well become a well-used classic over time.
May God bless you through this special music.
