This album is a collection of antique hymns, mostly from an old hymnal in my library, set to modern music. As one early listener said: "I've never heard any Christian music like it." I personally don't think of it as Christian music. In a technical sense it most assuredly is. To me, though, it almost seems to be something behind the music, as if the 'Christian' aspect is merely a surface layer over something much deeper. Feel free to make up your own mind, however. After all, in the beginning, I was merely curious as to how old hymns would sound set to new music.
The songs in my hymnal included neither titles nor musical instructions and in most cases I used the titling convention of using the content of the hymn's first line, though I made exceptions in several cases. For this reason, the hymns in this album may appear in other sources under a -or even many- different titles.
If you appreciate what I've done here and would like to support this project and others like it, feel free to head over to bandcamp and preview or pick up the release version of this and other Sonus Inanis albums.
