The Philadelphia Songwriters Project, a non-profit arts and education organization dedicated to the art and craft of songwriting, is delighted to announce the CD release of the live recording of their landmark choral event, Beyond Measure.
Performed in April, 2007, Beyond Measure was a musical extravaganza that blended the craftmanship of songwriting with the artistry of choral performance.
Ten songwriters, chosen from over 250 submissions, entrusted their unique melodies, lyrics, and music to two award winning music arrangers, John Conahan and James Wade. The arrangers then fashioned each song for performance by a multi-voiced choir or small vocal ensemble resulting in a perfectly harmonious union of songwriters, songs, and singers.
The concert, held in the spacious and acoustically lovely Church of the Savior in Wayne, was recorded by the superior sound technicians from Turtle Studios of Philadelphia. Expertly mixed and mastered by Turtle Studios’ Sound Engineer, Jeff Hiatt, the final CD caps off a two year long effort that fulfills The Philadelphia Songwriters Project’s mission of promoting the musical art form of songwriting and the songwriters who create it.
The CD features performances by a variety of vocal groups including the acclaimed Ana Crusis Women’s Choir, and the Select Choirs from Germantown Academy and Wissahickon High Schools. Song selections cover a range of genres and styles from the dissonance of the 20th century to the mellow roots of southern gospel.
The Philadelphia Songwriters Project is proud to present the art of the ten talented songwriters whose contribution to the local music landscape is Beyond Measure.
