From the Valley of Baca is composer David Carpenter’s debut for Navona Records. The album features three works that illustrate the expansive scope of his compositional style. From the lyrical 'Trio', to the powerfully poetic title work for baritone and piano, to the romantically-inclined 'Sonata', this release demonstrates the composer’s ability to express his artistic vision in a wide variety of musical genres...

There really is something here for all classical music lovers. The opening three-piece work 'Trio' is a harmonious, collection of traditionally themed classical pieces. 'From the Valley of Baca' is a nine-part composition that employs the baritone delivery of Lawrence Indik. Finally, the three-part 'Sonata' features the incredible piano work of Katelyn Bouska as she glides effortlessly through Carpenter's reflective, laid back composition.

There really isn't that much more to say about this release, other than if you're a classical music fan, Carpenter's world is one you should be a part of.
