His horn arrangements and trumpet playing can be heard on albums from the
Newsboys to Jody Benson (Disney's Little Mermaid). Jeff is also a member of
the Christian Jazz Artists Network! Aaron Weitekamp is the other arranger in
the company. AnderKamp Music was created
to provide accessible music that sounds great to churches, schools and
individuals. Their arrangements and charts were created with the local
church in mind. They do not create or provide charts that are
inaccessible, "studio charts," but rather arrangements for the, "weekend
warriors" in the local church. To date, over 1200 different churches
have ordered music through AnderKamp Music, and that number grows weekly.
Here are a few audio
& chart sample excerpts!

guest artist this series will work for you. All arrangements can be

here! THE JAZZ HYMNAL BY
CHUCK MAROHNIC
CJA
Network member Chuck Marohnic has many very helpful resources for integrating Jazz music
into the sanctuary!
The Jazz Hymnal is the first of its
kind in the publishing world and is the perfect addition to the library of
church music. It offers the church musician a unique selection of songs,
both original compositions and traditional hymnody in harmonically-enhanced
jazz/pop arrangement that challenge both the players and the listeners
beyond the usual diatonic realm. The look of the book and arrangements is
very professional and will be appreciated when read by musicians. There are even suggestions about where
to add improvised solos and some innovative ideas about congregational
involvement. All of these tunes work well for both congregations and
musicians. They have been tested with various congregations and musicians
and have won the approval of both.
For
further info visit the Jazz
Ed Page! Here are a few audio excerpts from the
Jazz Hymnal!

A
unique blend of Church organ, Saxophone, and Hammond Organ! Johannes Landgren has arranged some
Negro Spirituals for a solo instrument and organ (pipe organ or Hammond). Six
of them are published in this score book and can be heard on the CD Freedom
- The Vision interpreted by three instruments: a sax, a Hammond
organ and a church organ.
Three
outstanding musicians, Johannes Landgren, Hakan Lewin, and Kjeld Lauritsen
prove that even in a more traditional setting Jazz can provide a spiritual
punch! Very interesting arrangements of Negro Spirituals combining these
three instruments. Sheet music is also available!
