Product Description
Featuring 10 jazz arrangements of hymns and spirituals, this piano collection breaks new ground and makes the sounds of authentic jazz accessible to the pianist who does not come from a jazz piano background or who is inexperienced at jazz improvisation. All arrangements work as solo piano pieces or add in rhythm section for even more fun! (Note: chord symbols are included in the sheet music, rhythm parts are not.)
Testimonials
I love your jazz arrangements. Some of them are difficult, but it’s a blast working on them because they are so unique and fun!!! Your jazz arrangements stand out from the plethora of ho-hum arrangements of many composers. In my opinion your ability to write accessible jazz sets you apart (and above) most other arranger/composers. PLEASE!!!! Write more of these outstanding jazz arrangements!!!
Thanks for your work. You make a difference.

Comments
Dear Mr. Curry,
Though I bought BLUE CURRY in 2000 (Menchey Music, Hanover, PA) to use for worship services at Fairfield Mennonite Church, today I found your website. And that allows me to thank you for the blessings your arrangements have brought in corporate and personal meditation. I play through the folio, too, to stretch my skills: The tunes you selected and your arrangement styles combine to exceed so many contemporary (and redundant) folios.
I look for collections with challenging arrangements (in most any style) which have the gift of capturing the listener’s ear — “Be still” — and then centering the Spirit in worship, praise, prayer, etc. It helps if I can find a collection that goes beyond the most commonly used hymn tunes. The congregation really appreciates your “Come Sunday.”
May I add that your website is super. Creative, clever, eye-catching, not over-done… just right!
God bless,
Bonnie Portzline

This is the first of 3 books I have purchased. “Jesus Loves Me” is everyones favorite at St Matthews Episcopal Church in Raytown, Mo. I have also performed “Amazing Grace” with Piano, Bass, Drums and Flute. “Come Sunday” and “Redeemed” are also piano favorites. Your arrangements are invaluable. Thanks, and God Bless Craig Curry.
