I was looking for something rousing to perform . . . and saw this - it’s masterful! wow, thank you for sharing it!
~Mandy Powrie on What Child is This? Emmanuel!
This song was gorgeous, especially with the cello!

Very useful for the Christians around the world.

You arranged a fabulous piano accompaniment and our choir just loved this arrangement.
Bountiful, UT
I just stumbled on your website and am THRILLED! I have a choir that includes everyone from beginners to pros…and this song adds just enough difficulty and variation to a song they already know that we’re elated to have found it.
Saratoga Springs, UT
I want to thank you for your efforts in arranging this beautiful Christmas carol.
Livonia, MI
My choir is singing one of your pieces today in church, “Away in a Manger". It is a lovely piece with lots of gentle sounds with a fabulous flute accompaniment. Thanks for allowing us to sing such a wonderful piece of music. We will be back for more!
Copper Hills
It was well received, and the choir enjoyed working on it. It is wonderful that you are willing to make your music available to others free of charge.
Akron, OH
I wanted to thank you personally for allowing our choir to perform your pieces in our concert. To me, each one of the quodlibets had a distinct sound and wonderful rhythm that made each of them incredibly unique. I sang the part of the first mate in the ghost ship and hope we can continue to perform more of your music.

“As the Christmas season grows ripe with cheer, great music, and worship, take time to notice how beautiful a season it is! An artificial Christmas tree from Balsam Hill is a great accent to decorate a choral function.”

Thank you for your generous contribution of your talents!!
St. Louis, MI
Thank you so much for this music . . .
Dublin, Ireland
I had been searching for something “special” for the Choir to sing and was so delighted to come across “All Good Gifts” on the Internet: it was so appropriate and easy for the choir of 15 persons (most of us well over 50 years of age and only two of us able to “read” music!) to learn . . . Thank you and may God continue to bless you and your music ministry.
La Romain, Trinidad
I found your website by chance when I decided I wanted our ward choir to do an arrangement of “Lead Kindly Light” and just searched from yahoo for it. I love the arrangement you have made here! It is beautiful, different from other versions I have heard and most of all you allow people to print it off free!
We enjoyed practicing and performing your work, Ryan. It is easy enough to be approachable, yet complex enough to be interesting. The cello part adds richness and depth to the piece.
River Heights, ID
At first the choir thought I was nuts wanting to do this piece but they have all grown to love it.
Bay Village, OH
It turned out really beautifully. Thank you for an inspiring arrangement.
Salt Lake City, UT
This is a fantastic arrangement of All Glory, Laud and Honor!
Cresson, PA
Thank you for this wonderful arrangement.
South Africa
. . . performed All Glory, Laud, and Honor . . . It was met with excellent response! Beautiful piece - we used three soloists, plus the organ and piano exactly as arranged. It was easier to put together than expected and was very exciting to perform. Many choir members and those in the congregation said they had “chills!” Thank you.
Springville, UT
We will be performing “As with Gladness Men of Old’ abridged by M. Ryan Taylor. I thought it was a great way to sing an “old staple” but with a great new counterpoint and accompaniment! Thank you for sharing your music with the community of believers!
Sioux Falls, SD
I Love this arrangement!
Puyallup, WA
I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed performing “Rise Up Saints in Joy and Gladness” on Sunday evening . . . We feel blessed to have found this beautiful music.
