What They’re Saying About Spirituals . . .

Simply the best
Craig Curry is hands down the best jazz piano arranger working in church music today!
From his collections for weddings, for Easter, numerous Christmas books to his most recent Spiritual collection - the advanced, but achievable, truly-inspired arrangements take congregations and gatherings to a whole new level of joy, wonder, and beauty. My personal worship at the piano in my living room always includes one of his pieces. I am grateful there is a musician today giving new life to classics!

You need these arrangements in your life.
I love Craig Curry’s arrangements! They are challenging enough to keep my interest but easily worked up in a few rehearsals. His tasteful use of lush harmonies and variety of rhythmic settings secures his place as my favorite arranger.
I never shop for Craig’s arrangements. I follow his email updates and purchase a digital download of everything he arranges the day it is released. He never lets me down! His collection of spirituals is no exception.

Introducing the Spirituals Instrumental Solo Series
Music that adapts to your musicians — and moves your audience.
Bring the rich heritage of spirituals to life with fresh, instrumental solo jazz arrangements by Craig Curry. Each title in the Spirituals Solo Series celebrates a classic spiritual with flexible performance options for churches, concerts, and special events.
FRESH JAZZ STYLES THAT INSPIRE
From soulful swing to funky New Orleans grooves, each arrangement captures a unique jazz style that brings energy, variety, and joy to your music programming. These timeless spirituals honor their deep heritage while opening new doors for creative worship. They connect across generations, blending tradition with innovation.
FEATURE YOUR MUSICIANS
Give your instrumentalists a chance to shine—even with no prior jazz background, since all ”improv” sections are written out in musical notation. With solo parts for a wide variety of instruments, you have lots of options to highlight your musicians. (Available for flute, oboe, clarinet, soprano sax, alto sax, tenor sax, baritone sax, trumpet, french horn, trombone, violin, viola, and cello. Also available for rhythm section (bass, drums, piano, lead sheet), and as a bundled “All Instruments” edition.)
FLEXIBLE FOR ANY MUSICIAN OR Ensemble
Every title is available for a wide range of instruments and includes a piano score and an instrumental solo part. Other accompaniment options include rhythm section editions, backing tracks, and multitracks — so you can perform with just piano, add a live band, or create a full-band sound with ease with high-quality backing tracks or mulitracks.
PERFORMANCE-READY,
Even with Limited time
Backing tracks and multitracks make rehearsals smoother and performances reliable. Missing a musician? No problem. You’ll still have a polished, professional sound.
Build your collection
Each piece stands strong on its own, but together they form a comprehensive library of sacred jazz spirituals you can return to again and again.
