Customer Reviews for Provident Music Distribution Glory
Provident Music Distribution Glory
The highly anticipated follow-up to Freedom! Recorded with a 65-piece orchestra at London's prestigious AIR Studios, this powerful all-instrumental project includes "Glory---the Overture," "The Patriot," "Heroes," "Whitaker's Wonder," "Redemption," "Atonement," "The Romance," "The Tribute," and a larger-than-life symphonic version of "Agnus Dei." One listen and you'll understand why Michael considers each sweeping, cinematic movement a heartfelt prayer.

I like to listen to this at bedtime especially. Sometimes, I program my stereo system to play Angus Dei on repeat for hours on end. The words in my head going around and around on that loop help me have a very holy day. I just can't get enough of this wonderfully hauntingly beautiful album.

I've got to say, while I find Michael W. Smith's lyrical works to be rather shallow in spiritual content, his instrumental stuff is well done. Since I heard and bought his Freedom CD, I've been looking forward to the possibility of another instrumental CD. Thankfully, my anticipation has not been in vain. Well done, Michael!

Michael W. Smith and David Hamilton have outdone themselves. This CD is sooo beautiful! I can hardly stop listening to it. Even my grandchildren (ages 8 & 9) love it. Their favorite is "Glory Song"; I love it too, but have many favorites on the CD. A little preview of heaven!

I love Michael W Smith's work, but to me he shines brightest with his instrumental work. Freedom was an awesome album, and Glory is a fantastic followup to it. I agree with other reviewers who say "Tribute/Agnus Dei" is the best track on here. I can almost envision being in heaven, standing before God, with that track playing. I love the spot where the music dramatically builds and just bursts forth...gives me chills every time! The rest of the album is very patriotic sounding; I can't remember which piece it is (I listen to "Tribute/Agnus Dei" so often I can't remember the other pieces as well!), but there is one with a gorgeous trumpet solo that is guaranteed to raise goosebumps on your arms. This album is well worth a listen!

Wonderfully large, cinematic, epic instrumental album.
Whether a long time MWS fan, or a newcomer, you'll surely enjoy this album!
It simply just doesn't get any better than Michael's piano backed up with a symphony orchestra! Much of what one hears on this album, one would expect to hear at the local symphony orchestra, or as a film score, or even at a Disney park. IT IS REALLY THAT GOOD!
GLORY is the same vein as FREEDOM showcases patriotism. Yet this project does so much more: it gives me a sense of comfort.
While I love Michael's genuine and bold statments of faith in God in his more traditional Smitty projects with lyrics, this instrumental project touches the soul without words, with no less effect.
The songs are aptly titled. Close your eyes while you listen to the album, and you'll know their titles without even reading the CD jacket. From the John Williams influence of the opening "Glory Overture", to the visuals of Arlington Cemetary with "Heros"; from the mysterious and suspenseful "Glory Battle" to the feeling of ballet in "Whitacker's Wonder"; from the humble, consoling, and soothing of "Forver", "Giving", and "Joy Follow Sorrows" to the majestic tribute of "Tribute / Agnus Dei".
In what seems to be a newer trend, Michael captivates with the entire album, while saving the absolute best track for last. "TRIBUTE / AGNUS DEI" is by far my favorite track. PLAY IT LOUD!
I just can't stop listening to GLORY! It will be my MP3 player's new favorite for a LONG time!

Go buy this CD! This CD blows my expectations away. I thoroughly enjoy Michael's first instrumental album and know that Glory will be taking up long time residence in my CD player. Each song is powerful and I find myself moved more often than not. No words are necessary to express the feelings/emotions in the songs. Love it!
