REVIEWS |
| The solo piano music of Calvin Jones reaches people of all ages and backgrounds. Here's what people are saying: |
| [Calvin's] music doesn't sound like John Tesh or Yanni. It has more substance. |
- E.W. |
| "In July a friend invited me to a craft fair, and even though I knew I couldn't buy anything, because I was living on a shoestring, I went. That's when I first heard your song, 'Uncharted Waters.' I stood at a booth and listened to it over and over, and despite my not having a cent to spare, I knew I had to have that CD. I took it home, and enjoyed it thoroughly..." | - N.C. Denver, CO |
| "'Magical. It [Whitewater Chopped Sticks] made me want to dance like snoopy." | - M.R. Denver, CO |
| "I gave my father a CD player for Fathers Day and when I played Danny Boy [Londonderry Falls] for him, he cried, and then we all had a good cry. I have truly enjoyed travelling with you through high places, and can't wait to see you play." | - J.M. Oswego, NY |
| "In the line of work that I do there are dangers I encounter daily. I find your music very relaxing after a day in the sky. Every night I fall asleep to it on the ship. I love your music!" |
- Capt. D. D., Attack Pilot - USMC Newbern, NC |
| "This is the fourth copy of this tape I've bought! [Calvin Jones, Through High Places] One will be a Christmas present for my sister in Washington state, the other two are getting worn out in Tucson and Omaha, and this, the fourth, is mine to get others hooked. The music has been a real blessing and a healing, soothing balm." | - C.S. Fort Collins, CO |
| "July, I drove alone from Florida to Hillsdale, MI .... My whole point in writing to tell you all this is that "Through High Places" accompanied me on my trip and even though I had several other tapes along which I listened to and enjoyed, it was your music that I played almost continuously. In fact, I wondered if I would wear it out!!!" | - M.U. Student - Osprey, FL |
| My job in life can be very stressful and hectic. There are many times when I come home after work and I need a haven where I can feel peaceful and relaxed. Your music calms my spirit and puts things into perspective again for me. Sometimes it brings me to tears and other times I experience joy. At any rate, I am thankful that I can be soothed when I hear your beautiful music." | - P.H. Banking - Pierre, SD |
| "Your music has enlightened both of us for years and we owe much of our love for music to you." | - C.T.B. Chef - Orange City, IA |
| "I am also a pianist, and don't get to hear others play that often .... Sometimes I get tired of hearing pianists playing 'other people's music' ... So I thank you heartily for sharing your music with us. It is refreshing and encouraging." | - S.K. Pianist - Everett, WA |
| "I can't begin to tell you how much I've enjoyed the unique arrangements on this album. I love his touch, his style, and the deep feeling that is in every song. ...Every time I listen to my tape I have this great urge to be able to sit down and play the songs for myself [with our sheet music, now you can!]. I love the music!" | - A.G. Music Teacher - Averill Park, NY |
| "Recently a dear friend of mine, M.K., shared with me one of her most treasured possessions, which happened to be your tape "Through High Places." She told me what an inspirational blessing your music has been in her life. M.K. is a very special, courageous person. She is a 42 year old mother of three, battling both cancer and heart problems. Faced with the harsh reality that she won't live many more years, M.K. finds a peaceful haven away from her illness, in your music. Your songs uplift her spirit in her darkest moments by providing hope and tranquility. I want to thank you for sharing your musical talent with the world and touching so many lives with your beautiful gift of song." | - A.A. California, MO |
