Testimonials
I purchased today your piano book "Gospel Improv" and just finished playing through it. They are excellent arrangements. They are arranged with a very nice jazz style and sound without being "cheesey". Excellent chord prgressions as well. Thanks.

This is an awesome collection of great arrangements. I am playing a solo concert this Sunday that includes most of these works, but I have of course made alterations in the improv and push some of the tempos a bit. Thanks Craig for giving us jazz guys something to play in the walls of a church!!
Thanks for your encouraging words. Hope your concert went well! I added it to the Performances Map in the “About” section.
