Arranger, composer and conductor Alice Parker leads a group of seminary singers in Indiana through a repertoire of over a dozen hymns, offering tips and suggestions along the way. In songs like "Lord, From the Depths to Thee" and "Santo, Santo, Santo," Parker fires up her audience, underscoring her belief that "song is at the soul of worship." However, the non-structured approach to instruction, and the spotty use of onscreen lyrics (used for some songs but not others) seriously reduces the audience. Choir directors would find some pointers here, but the format rules out wide use among general church singers. Not a necessary purchase. (R. Pitman)
