Fredrik Melius Christiansen (1871–1955)

With some of the most well-loved hymns used in worship, this encompasses many ecumenical traditions. Arrangements by F. Melius Christiansen abound in a cappella tracks "Praise to the Lord," "O Day Full of Grace," and "Beautiful Savior." Only seven of 19 tracks are a cappella, but the others are nicely accompanied by organ and a small orchestra. This is a lovely collection of songs of worship and praise. (1999 67:73)
