What Others Are Saying
I have been playing Carolyn’s beautiful hymn arrangements for well over thirty years. Her work as an arranger makes my work as a church organist easier! I like especially her appropriately colorful harmonic language, her innate sense of appropriate form and texture, and the elegance with which she treats hymn tunes. She has also a gift for linking classical themes to hymns and weaving them together. Best of all is that her musical inspiration flows from a heart sincerely devoted to serving her fellow church musicians through the gifts that God has given her.
Carolyn Hamlin’s musical compositions draw in equal parts on her lifetime of experience as a church musician and her lifetime deep commitment of faith. Whether the words are set explicitly in a choral work or sit behind the inspiration of a hymn-based organ piece, she always seeks to amplify their message through rich musical expression. Hamlin’s body of work serves as a continued and inspiring resource for church musicians everywhere.
These beautiful and exciting compositions brilliantly display her vivace personality! You will enjoy them all.
Carolyn Hamlin’s music bears a universal appeal, like Carolyn herself. She has never met a stranger, or one who hasn’t been endeared and inspired by her deep and abiding faith, determination, and wit. These attributes and more are all contained in her compositions, which know no particular creed or denomination but that of praise and worship to God in any and every form and understanding. It has been my personal honor to know not only Carolyn the composer, but Carolyn the person, each inextricable from the other. Her works find homes at once in the worship service and concert stage, no matter the medium for which they have been composed, and have been heard in numerous such locations throughout the United States and the world. If one is searching for music that is honest, durable, unpretentious, accessible, and simply beautiful, one need look no farther than Carolyn Hamlin.
To God be the glory.
