Alpha 7 Ministries goes "Beyond The Walls" with new Instrumental Gospel/Jazz CD

May 29, 2009 - PRLog -- Music has been defined as "The art of combining tones to form an expressive composition". Said another way, it is "The creative and skillful combining of instruments and voices to make a statement". The "Beyond the Walls"  CD meets that definition well, with a  balanced blend of music skillfully performed by some very gifted and talented musicians from the San Francisco Bay Area. Each instrumental song speaks in a universal language a message that will reach beyond the walls of your heart and impact your every emotion.

Artists that may come to mind when you listen to this CD are Ben Tankard, Bob James, Kirk Whalum, Jeff Majors, George Benson, and several other gospel/smooth jazz artists.

Beyond the Walls is a departure from some of Alpha 7 Ministries' previous releases which have been more along the lines of  traditional gospel choirs/ensembles,  and a move into new territory. As stated by Minister Randall Ogans, this is not a collection of hymns, familiar tunes, or the normally recognized "church" music. It is a Christian/Gospel Jazz  CD that will inspire,  soothe, calm, and provoke thought and inner reflection as you go through life's  normal daily activities, not just on Sunday morning. We really wanted to go beyond the norm, as sometimes in our normal circles its as though we take sand and pour it on the beach, which is already full of sand. We make little impact.

There is a message just in music. It does speak to us from Heaven, but we're not always listening. Also, sometimes words and personality get in the way of us receiving the intended message, or distorts the message. Instrumental music lessens the possibility of that occuring.

This CD will reach beyond the physical, emotional, and spirtual walls, impacting your emotions so much so that it can change the course of your day, or life.

Beyond the walls is in stores as well as available for purchase online at cdbaby.com, amazon.com, and other online music retailers.
