A Testimonial from fellow Musicians:

On behalf of Elizabeth Rice, Charlie Whittaker and myself, I’d like to say how wise we feel to have chosen Brent Weaver as our consortium’s composer and how lucky we feel that he accepted the position!
After hearing his compositions this evening, one can easily recognize his talent, versatility, inventiveness, and creativity….
Brent Weaver is possibly the kindest, most accommodating and humble soul there ever was. He knew that his job was to give us compositions that would be usable – workable for each of our congregations. And that he did…..even if it took reworking and rewriting and refiguring. He wasn’t interested in an esoteric piece that would sit on our shelves….and neither were we. He constantly sought our opinions and input and became physically, spiritually, and emotionally in touch with our respective congregations.
In the words of Charlie Whittaker, Brent didn’t use a “cookie-cutter” formula to craft our pieces. Instead, he came up with new ideas for each one of the six pieces and was able to create the diverse and beautiful palette you witnessed this evening.
