Welcome to Advent Press, a
publisher of sacred music. Why “New Traditions in Church Music”?
Christianity is heir to a glorious musical legacy. Some of the
greatest works of all time -- simple and elaborate -- were composed
in praise of God. To be faithful stewards of this inheritance is only
a beginning. Church music also must speak in new and fresh ways in our
own day to those who seek God. Advent Press offers music that is
grounded in tradition, even as it seeks to renew and enliven that
tradition. |

The music of Advent Press is
practical music. Anthems in our catalog represent a variety of styles
and levels of difficulty for all kinds of choirs. The hymn settings
with brass, timpani and organ inspire congregations to new heights of
singing. The settings of the Eucharist are in demand across the
country and have been well received by congregations in churches large
and small. The new hymn tunes present familiar words in a fresh way. |
