The first new collection from John L. Bell featuring the Cathedral Singers and the Iona Community since 2001. Beautifully recorded by the Cathedral Singers under the direction of Bill Chin, this new collection features a perfect mix of new world music and choral favorites. The Splendour of the House of God is a collection of texts that “speak of God to God’s people or for God’s people to God.” These songs for worship have existed in the Iona repertoire for some time and have proven their worth. Today, the Iona Community shares these brilliant texts with the world. All of the texts in this collection speak, in one way or another, to what is involved in public worship—from physical buildings to living our faith in the world. The Splendour of the House of God was premiered at the 2011 NPM National Convention in Louisville, Kentucky. Contents: The Splendour of the House of God, O Christ, the Master Carpenter, All People Living on the Earth, I Was Glad, I Love the Lord, In Complete Desperation, Conceiver of Both Heaven and Earth, This Is My Will, We Cannot Measure How You Heal, Lux Aeterna, In Christ We Live, Wisdom's Table, O Taste and See, The Lord of the Earth, O Come, Let Us Sing. .

Imagine almost a thousand voices raised in glorious harmony, singing songs of the faith and accompanied by a grand church band and orchestra, as together they offer their adoration and worship to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

That is exactly what has happened each and every year for the past decade or more at the annual Choral Festival in Spartanburg S. C., sponsored by our friends at Christian Supply. Each year, Choral Festival has commissioned one of the church's favorite choral arrangers and personalities, Marty Parks, to arrange The Opener – a medley of hymns, praise choruses, worship songs, and gospel favorites blended together in an opening presentation that gives the event its signature launch every year! Having long been a favorite element of the conference year after year, many have asked, Where can I get those arrangements for my church? or Are those arrangements available for my choir?.

Well, your wait is over! Word Music & Church Resources is excited to present CHORAL FESTIVAL FAVORITES, created, arranged and orchestrated by Marty Parks! We have joined hands with Marty and Christian Supply to bring you this highly-anticipated book of blended medleys for your choir and congregation. Taking the same arrangements created for Choral Festival, Marty has adapted them for use on Sundays with your choir, band, and orchestra, while leaving plenty of room and encouragement for your congregation to join in and sing along! We also offer a powerful DVD accompaniment and performance track to support and enhance your presentation of these proven medleys on Sunday mornings!

Choral Festival Favorites...direct to your choir from the pen of Marty Parks and the platform of one of the most influential choral music conferences over the past 25 years, bringing all the parts and pieces together in one new, ministry-focused choral project that will equip your church for the ministry of music and worship worldwide!

Hymn singing is an important part of our heritage as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Elder Boyd K. Packer, in October 1991 General Conference, said: If we will listen, [hymns] are teaching the gospel, for the hymns of the Restoration are, in fact, a course in doctrine! In his landmark speech entitled The Arts and the Spirit of the Lord, Elder Packer stated:

Our hymns speak the truth as far as they go. They could speak more of it if we had more of them specifically teaching the principles of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. If I had my way there would be many new hymns with lyrics near scriptural in their power, bonded to music that would inspire people to worship. Think about how much we could be helped by another inspired anthem or hymn of the Restoration. (BYU, February 1, 1976)

In response to Elder Packer's invitation, we have been writing new hymns during the past decade based on favorite general conference sermons. Our hope was that once the central theme of each address was set to music it might serve as another witness of the inspired message, and would be sung in homes, in choirs, and in conjunction with the Teachings For Our Time lessons in Relief Society and Priesthood meetings.
