Hi: My name is Susan Mack. In May of 2001 a small group of people began holding Christian Science Sunday services on the south side of St. Louis. It was a precious group of people, and it seemed the perfect opportunity to drag out my guitar from my college days and do a little singing in this informal setting. At first I would arrange hymns from the Christian Science Hymnal to sing. Then I tried writing new musical settings for words from the Hymnal. Slowly I began setting familiar Bible passages to original music and finally one day I decided to attempt setting a Bible story to music and the result was the song "Jairus' Daughter" (click to hear a sample). This led to many more Bible stories and Bible passages set to music, and now there are over 50 of them in existence, with more on the way.

 

Hi: I am Bob Rockabrand. Who would have thought that three "music majors" from my first teaching year at Principia College would, 25 years later, form a folk music group called The Solo Committee, and then hire me to arrange their folk songs into sheet music form?  Well, that's exactly what's happened, and I'm thrilled to be collaborating with Susan Mack, Sue Loomis and Carey Loomis on this new and exciting project. I am using a computer program called "Sibelius". So far I have completed one solo entitled "With Me," and it is posted here on my website under “Solos”.  As other Solo Committee arrangements become available they will also be posted on my website.  The solos can be downloaded and printed out for your use with instructions for how to send payment to The Solo Committee. I also recommend that you check out The Solo Committee's website www.solosommittee.com where you'll find the solo "I Am Holding You," arranged by Sue Loomis. You will also find The Solo Committee's seven albums for sale--four of which are available for purchase in Christian Science Reading Rooms around the world.
