One of the world’s most salient features is that there is so much trouble, but one of the world’s deepest hopes is for something better. The tension between these two ideas is the binding theme of this collection of choral works. The centerpiece of the collection, Knut Nystedt’s Prayers of Kierkegaard, is surrounded by a myriad of contemporary settings of American folk songs and spirituals. The contemplation of trouble and transcendence heard throughout these songs is given a fitting response in Shawn Kirchner’s joyful work I’ll Be on My Way. This disc is a meditative and healing listen in the midst of difficult times. The Missouri State University Chorale is the flagship choral ensemble at Missouri State University. Made up of a diverse group of singers from a variety of backgrounds, this renowned ensemble performs at an incredibly high level and enjoys an international reputation. The MSU Chorale has performed regularly at conferences of the American Choral Directors Association, Missouri Music Educators Association, the National Association for Music Education, and has toured throughout North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Cameron F. LaBarr is director of choral studies at Missouri State University, where he leads a comprehensive choral program including eight choirs and a graduate program in choral conducting. He holds a Bachelor of Music from Missouri State University and earned a Master of Music and Doctor of Musical Arts from the University of North Texas.

GIA is pleased to release an impassioned new recording from Jeanne Cotter. Tender Hearted is filled with songs that pour forth the message of God’s unconditional love. These songs tell the story of Christ’s heart of compassion and of his gentle yet untiring call for us to live as his disciples. Written for her three children, the title track “Tender Hearted†encourages us all to clothe ourselves “with kindness, patience, and humility†and to “live a life worthy of our calling.†The moving texts of “All Is Holy,†“The Way You Love Me,†and “In You, I Abide†remind us that we are called to be imitators of Christ—to build the kingdom through our acts of mercy, kindness, and compassion. The music of Tender Hearted is not just about our outward actions of grace and holiness toward others. It is also about the grace that God shows each of us daily. Songs like “Do Not Be Afraid,†“By Your Love,†and “ I’ll Walk by Your Side†are filled with encouraging words of hope and healing. Tender Hearted is quintessential Jeanne Cotter. When you listen, be prepared for your heart to swell with love, kindness, and peace.
