Presbybop
Music is
a musical venture of Bill Carter, jazz pianist and Presbyterian minister.
After years of pretending to split the life of faith from the music of
jazz, Bill has been trying to find links between the two halves of his
brain. Presbybop Music is his attempt to integrate his strong
Presbyterian faith with the rhythms and music of bebop.
In 1993 he formed the Presbybop Quartet with Al Hamme, his college
music professor from Binghamton University. Together with drummer Tom
Whaley and bassist Tony Marino, the band has been turning heads
on the musical scene - and adding new dimensions to the faith and worship
of the Christian church.
Based in northeastern Pennsylvania, this group of consummate professionals
has presented concerts and jazz worship services in churches around the
country. Their music has been widely acclaimed. To date, Bill's
Presbybop Quartet has recorded many recordings including: Faith in a New Key,
Dancing Day, Fragile Incarnation, and Stand On Your Head
and his latest Welcome Home.
Bill Carter spends most of his time as a busy pastor in a bustling church.
Yet he keenly senses that God wants him to use his musical gifts as a
means of reaching people with the good news of God's grace, peace, and
joy. His jazz ministry has received national recognition, and has served
as a model for integrating the arts in Christian ministry.
