Panis Angelicus – True Bread from Heaven Performance Tracks
Panis Angelicus / True Bread from Heaven Performance Tracks is an album for singers. “Panis Angelicus” is a beautiful traditional song of the church. My translation, set to the traditional melody, is called “True Bread from Heaven.” This album contains performance tracks and demos for the song in both the traditional and contemporary arrangements. I wrote the contemporary arrangement to update the song for those churches that prefer a more modern style. My new English lyrics, “True Bread from Heaven,” are appropriate for use in both Protestant and Catholic churches.
This album is dedicated to the memory of my sister Christine McLellan, who used to sing “Panis Angelicus” beautifully. It was always a favorite of hers, and when I sang it at her funeral, I realized there was a need for a good performance track of this song.
