Billy Wolfe’s new spin on traditional American and European hymn tunes, these are lovingly and tastefully arranged piano solos in a style suitable for all faiths, all occasions. Medieval chant melodies as well as old primitive folk tunes from early American and Irish churches of the 18th and 19th century blend with modern hymns from recent years. These simple, stark, yet original arrangements will inspire and enhance any listener’s experience. The album includes hymn tunes such as Restoration, Slane, Land of Rest, Adoro Devote and New Britain, as the listener will recognize the melodies of their favorite hymns such as I Will Arise, Just as I Am, and Amazing Grace. Different names, different words, different churches, yet the tunes themselves are universal. Retreat into the beauty and strength of Billy Wolfe’s Southern Harmonies.

| Inspired by the musical waters issuing forth from springs across Texas, ‘Springs’ is an album of twelve original piano solos based on Texas springs, from Barton Springs in Austin to the Cienega de San Solomon near Balmorhea. Each piano solo is introduced by the sound of water bubbling out of the ground recorded at the actual spring the piece is named after. Complemented by a 17-page booklet describing each spring with lovely color photographs and quotes from Gunnar Brune’s comprehensive study ‘Springs of Texas,” this is a rare and wonderful listening experience. Relax into a watery world of cool, shady grottos, cypress trees, birds, fish, ferns and turtles. This CD is perfect for a hot summer day in Texas or anywhere in the world.
