Choral Works

A Small Sample of Publications by Dr. Stevens

 

On June 4, 2009, I had the great privilege of writing an arrangement of "It Is Well With My Soul" for the celebration of the ministry of Bert and Diane Tippett at FWBBC. It is being made available to be downloaded for FREE to be used in churches around the country in recognition of their service. I am sorry to say that Mr. Tippet passed away on Jan. 5, 2011.

Here are some selected examples of my choral works. Thanks for visiting!
