		Alabado Sea Dios En Español Alabado sea Dios is a collection of gorgeously crafted sacred latino songs from around the world sung passionately by Julia Wade. With its beautiful melodies, latino rhythms and rich orchestrations, this music will inspire both Spanish and English listeners alike. The music in Alabado sea Dios comes from South America, Spain, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Cuba and the United States, with two brand new compositions from Peter Link. It ranges from the haunting “El amor” to the playful “Al despuntar en la loma el día,” from the stately “Pueblo santo y elegido,” and the mysterious “Apaciento mis ovejas,” to the joyful “Gracias con alabanza.” Alabado sea Dios sings praise to God and His creation in a rich tapestry of latino rhythms, colors, emotions and ideas. Julia Wade has collaborated once again with award-winning composer and producer Peter Link, as well as amazing musicians and singers from Latin America and the U.S., including Latin jazz pianist Rafael Alcalá, guitarists Chieli Minucci and Bobby Stanton, violinist James Graseck, with vocal arranger Margaret Dorn Jillian Armsbury, Emily Bindiger, Oriente Lopez, David Oquendo, Kevin Osborne, Deborah Resto, and Russell Velásquez. Be prepared to celebrate right along with these great musicians! Alabado sea Dios came about when Julia Wade and Peter Link were commissioned to record a Spanish inspirational CD as a result of Julia’s continuing position as the Soloist for the Spanish services at The First Church of Christ, Scientist in Boston. There she performs an incredible array of latino sacred music with Latin jazz pianist Rafael Alcalá, as represented on this CD. So that Spanish and English listeners alike may enjoy the music, lyrics in Spanish and English are included in the CD booklet of Alabado sea Dios. Enjoy! Listen to the Music Purchase the CD at
