[Dixielandjazz] gospel tunes

[Ingemar Wågerman]

Listmates,

Our band has just released a CD "Lilies of the Valley" with gospel tunes and hymns - a follow-up to our "Gather at the River" and "Swedish Hymns". Many interesting and unusual numbers, seldom or never played by traditional jazz bands. Details on our website http://listen.to/gotariver , where you can also find our religious repertoire . We play frequently in churches in Sweden and Denmark. 
I met Marilyn Keller at many festivals in Sweden. She is a marvellous gospel singer and a wonderful person.
