<< Back to Album "Follow Him" from Life Journey
by Dave Bainbridge & David Fitzgerald Released in 2009 Track: 2 / Time: 5:24
History:
This piece sprang from the frame drum loop, the consecutive 5th chord progression that comes in around 40 seconds in (originally on piano but replaced by Celtic harp) and David's simple, but effective soprano sax melody, which to me has something of the attractive, compulsiveness of a tune that the Piped Piper of Hamelin may have played. There must have been something incredibly attractive about Jesus for the disciples to just leave all they had to follow Him.
After we had this initial melodic and rhythmic idea, the challenge was to arrange it in such a way that it would grow and develop without losing that childlike simplicity.
