In the Fall of 1998, Fred released his first solo piano album, “ Be Glorified“. These two albums were designed to provide continuous play instrumental music for prayer, quiet time, and devotion.

None of the carols are overly difficult, although a few present some moderate challenges. This is a really nice collection that features a combination of sacred and secular carols that are true to the original melodies with some personal touches by each of the artists.
