Description

On this week's episode of the Music for the Soul Podcast, we're delighted to explore a heartfelt new collaboration between Phillip Keveren and Steve Siler: Candle & Compass: Songs for Sanctuary.

Phillip and Steve delve into the inspiration and purpose behind this deeply prayerful collection, their influences in getting started in their music careers, and how the project evolved organically rather than being something they originally set out to plan.

Phillip also contextualizes his creative journey, outlining the musical, emotional, and spiritual influences that shaped arrangements like Sanctuary and Great is Thy Faithfulness. He evokes how the emotional power of classical compositions, combined with passionate vocal interpretations, can be especially transformative within a spiritual musical context.
 
We are incredibly excited to share this project with you and encourage you to listen to all 11 songs on Spotify, Apple Music, or YouTube.
