As young seminarians at St. Louis University, Bob Dufford, Roc O’Connor, Dan Schutte, John Foley and Tim Manion brought the ancient traditions of the Church into the present with acoustic guitars and simple melodies. Dan Schutte describes the group as ‘a brotherhood of composers joined by our common love for Jesus Christ, for music and for prayerful liturgy.’ At a time of great change, churches were hungry for a new kind of music that would encourage everyone to join in the worship. People discovered that these folk-like melodies and clear, scriptural lyrics are an enduring way to pray in song. Such songs as Here I Am, Lord, One Bread, One Body and Be Not Afraid helped a whole generation of churchgoers to lift up their voices. They continue to be active in 2006 published a 30th anniversary collection, Morning Light.
~~~1447~1449~~
Twenty years after their last collection, the St. Louis Jesuits have reuinited to produce this collection of twelve new songs, three each by Dan Schutte, John Foley, Bob Dufford and Roc O'Connor. It shows they still have the ability to set Scripture-based texts to beautiful, accessible, melodies. The songs cover a variety of themes, including trust in the Lord, discipleship, light, hope, love and praise.
Highlights include Gather the People (Dan Schutte), a spirited, syncopated entrance hymn; O Beauty, Ever Ancient, by Roc O'Connor, based on a text by St. Augustine; Behind and Before Me (Bob Dufford), an exquisite setting of Ps 139, and Teach Us to Pray (John Foley), inspired by Romans 8, invoking the Holy Spirit's help in prayer and all we do.

A comprehensive resource with music for every rite of the Triduum.
The celebration of the Easter Triduum is the heart and soul of our Christian faith, commemorating the triumph of God’s love over the darkness of death. Dan Schutte conceived each piece in Glory in the Cross for particular moments in the three days of this one great liturgy. Processionals, litanies, prayers of intercession, psalms, hymns and acclamations for every rite - a unified tapestry of music that extends from Holy Thursday’s mourning to Easter’s "alleluia." Many of the pieces can be used effectively in other liturgies. "Where Love Is Found," for instance, is wellsuited for the wedding liturgy, "Come To The River," for the sprinkling rite.

Songs that unite the seasons of Advent and Christmas, and draw us into the celebration of Christ’s incarnation and presence in our world today. Knowing the difficulty of introducing new music at this time of year, Dan has created new arrangements of many traditional melodies. There are psalm settings for use throughout Advent and Christmas, allowing a community to learn and use one refrain for several Sundays. There are extensive texts for seasonal hymns to accommodate the changing themes of each week. These songs give voice to our hopes and longings, reminding us that God wasn't born just once in time, but takes flesh for us every day.

All of us have had moments when we hear something - a familiar melody, favorite instrument - that makes us pause, remember God and enter spontaneously into prayer. For many, music is a particularly powerful trigger for these times of spiritual communion with the Lord.
All My Days, the latest collection of instrumental tracks from Dan Schutte, provides over 50 minutes of moments like this. Gentle, quiet and reflective, the music makes a calming background for personal prayer, retreats, prayer services and other occasions. Instruments include piano, oboe, flute, cello, violin and other strings.
The recording contains four instrumental suites, each of which is a carefully arranged, smoothly flowing medley of three songs. Lushly orchestrated by Bob Harrold, All My Days features melodies from many of Dan’s most popular songs: Though the Mountains May Fall, City of God, Sing a New Song,and others.
Perfect for listening at home, while driving, working or on retreat, this is music that inspires prayerful moments in which we say, "I will bless your name, sing your praise, give you thanks, all my days."
