notes
"Bill Carter is a great piano player. I think his music is wonderful, and I highly recommend his recordings." - (Dave Brubeck, jazz legend)
"What Bill Carter and the Presbybop Quartet have done with some classically religious pieces is just wonderful. It opens new ways of hearing old -- and favorite -- and powerful pieces. And adds some new things, too! For me, it continually expands my mind and soul." - (Dr. Arthur Sundstrom, Chevy Chase Presbyterian Church)
"Bill Carter is simply the leading guru for today's surge of interest in jazz and church music. Carter takes favorite hymns -- "Be Thou My Vision, Amazing Grace" -- and proves there is an alternative between traditional and contemporary. Take care, though! Bill Carter can inspire secular lovers of jazz into believing or believing again, and ordinary believers into loving jazz for the first time." - (Dr. Kent Ira Groff - author of The Soul of Tomorrow's Church)
"Here's a preacher who knows how to swing, and a musician who says something every time he plays." - (Dr. Eugene Lowry - St. Paul School of Theology - author of The Homiletical Plot)
"Bill Carter is a rare talent, able to combine traditional and jazz idioms in innovative and surprising ways." - (Robert Herrema, director, Robert Dale Chorale, Marywood University)
"Now we applaud the efforts of Presbyterian pastor and jazz pianist Bill Carter. All the gifts of jazz are here: imagination, improvisation, freedom, rhythm, and collaboration. Spiritual gifts indeed!" - (Jeff Kellam, Presbyterians Today)
