Performed and recorded at Church of the Advent, Kennett Square, PA From the composer: "A 16 bar blues, 'The Peace" is designed for Vibraphone and Jazz Piano Trio. It is a tune that will keep evolving. This composition is dedicated to my dear friend, The Reverend Canon Lloyd Casson, Rector Emeritus of St. Andrew's and St. Matthew's Church in Wilmington, Delaware. It is a church that transcends boundaries...or like Duke Ellington used to say about his music 'It is beyond boundaries'."
