Endorsement:

This CD of instrumental hymns will quickly become a family favourite. The music is of a very high quality and the selections played are bound to have a wide appeal (e.g., Genevan, traditional and more modern hymns, as well as some classical such as Handel, Purcell and Mozart). The sensitive opening solo selection, "Abide With Me", by Noortje Van Middelkoop on the panflute is superb and sets the right tone (pardon the pun) for what follows. Together with Harm Hoeve on the organ, this duet brings to new life and vigour tunes one may not have been aware had such potential for sparkle and appeal. Some of the selections also involve Anja Van Der Maten playing the oboe, Edith and Arjan Post with trumpets and Hendrie Westra on the xylophone. All in all a very delightful and uplifting recording which I hope will be enjoyed by many in our midst. In an age of much trash music, a CD such as this needs to be heard in our families. May it also be used to build appreciation for good music." - C. Van Dam in Clarion This CD of instrumental hymns will quickly become a family favourite.
