Parley P. Pratt. Even his name is interesting. Minister,
missionary, poet, author, and Apostle; he lived only 50 years, but
left a powerful legacy including an autobiography and some 50 hymn
texts -- many of which are still favorites of the Saints. Now
"Parley P. Pratt's Greatest Hymns" gives new arrangements to these
favorites, and musical life to many others for the first time. The
writers, arrangers, and producers for this project are Pete
Peterson and Roger Hoffman. Pete is former Executive Vice President
of WordPerfect Corporation, currently a volunteer with the
Perpetual Education Fund, who says he would have been an excellent
musician except for his problems with rhythm and intonation. Roger
is is a Clio and Peabody Award-winning songwriter, singer, and
arranger -- the writer of "Consider the Lilies," a Tabernacle Choir
favorite. Today we talk to Roger and Pete about bringing the hymn
texts of Parley P. Pratt to life. Thanks for listening! - SKP
