Affectionately known as “Tommie” and referred to as the “Maestro” by gospel music professionals, Thomas Whitfield should be considered the Dean of Contemporary Gospel Music. Whitfield’s work with his ensemble, The Thomas Whitfield Company, set a standard for contemporary gospel choral singing. His revelatory blending of gospel, jazz, and classicism explored previously uncharted territory in gospel music. As the “Master Producer,” he provided the foundation for studio production standards within the genre while elevating the careers of some of gospel music’s most beloved voices, including Vanessa Bell Armstrong and Yolanda Adams. His sudden passing in 1992 proved a tragic blow to the gospel music community. However, he left an indelible mark on the industry, and his distinctive sound is heard in all of gospel music today. The songs included in this set represent but a brief overview of his musical legacy…just in case you’ve forgotten. Contents: Look and Live (G-9706) • Blessed Be the Ties (G-9929) • With My Whole Heart (G-9177) • I Shall Wear a Crown (G-9350) • Walk in the Light (G-9349) • Gos Is on Our Side (G-9571) • When I'm Weak, I'm Strong (G-9570) • Just in Case You've Forgotten (G-9962) • Only a Look (G-9961) • Down at the Cross (G-9772).

'This set of miniatures is based on traditional dance songs of the Yupik Eskimo people of Western Alaska. In their original forms, these melodies would be sung in unison. The first, third and fifth songs would be accompanied by frame drums. The second and fourth are game songs, for jumping rope and juggling pebbles. Aside from the obvious difference in instrumentation, my settings of these songs differ from the Yup'ik originals in other respects. I have extended and varied the melodies, and added countermelodies, ostinato figurations, introductions, interludes and codas. The first four melodies are drawn from the collection Yup'ik Eskimo songs, compiled by Thomas F. Johnston, and Tupou L. Pulu, and published by the University Of Alaska. The fifth was 'loaned' to me by Yup'ik singer and dancer Chuna McIntyre, who learned it in his village of Eek, Alaska. The poems preceding each piece are rough translations of the words to the songs. These verses are often cryptic and enigmatic. Their obscurity is increased because some of the words or their meanings have been lost, over time.' - John Luther Adams.

Includes two copies of the performance score These pieces are inspired by the music and spirit of the Athabascan people of Alaska's boreal forest. The first and third dances are based on songs by Joe Beetus, a Koyukon elder from the village of Huslia. The second dance is based on a short traditional song of the Dena'ing people of the Kenai Peninsula, as remembered by the late Peter Kalifornsky and transcribed by the late Thomas F. Johnston. In their original setting these melodies would be sung in unison, with no harmony or counterpoint. Working as a composer in the Western tradition, I have extended and transformed them in many ways. I have 'borrowed' and 'set' these melodies with permission and with the hope that my treatment of them conveys my profound respect for their origins. The second and third pieces are derived from my setting of poems by Adeline Peter Raboff written in the dialect of her Gwich'in people, who inhabit the country from Arctic Village to Old Crow. I offer this music as a gesture of respect to the first peoples of the Northern Interior and the Kenai Peninsula. - John Luther Adams.
