New York, NY (March 21, 2005) – Gospel music’s most exciting artist, Kurt Carr, returns to the music scene with the smash new album, “One Church,” the follow up to his impressive Gold selling “Awesome Wonder.”
Carr, who along with his 7-voice ensemble takes his music ministry to new levels with the recently released project with a combination of powerful praise and stirring vocals that is both multi-cultural and international in scope.
As the title suggests, “One Church,” spotlights Carr’s trademark musical diversity incorporating elements such as a South African choir; Scottish bagpipers; an Armenian accordionist, an Eastern Indian sitar and a full classical orchestra. “One Church” is truly an original body of work and features the hit songs “God Great God,” an undeniable Sunday Morning classic in the making and “Psalm 68 [Let Our God Arise],” dubbed as the world’s first praise and worship tango.
Carr’s ingenious music ministry offers something for all audiences and his breakthrough chart-topper “Awesome Wonder,” was the winner of six Gospel Music Stellar Awards – and Carr’s work as producer on the self-titled debut album of 2003’s New Artist of the Year, Byron Cage, produced four more Stellar Awards.
Carr obtained a degree in music from the University of Connecticut, focusing in the classroom on classical music, while absorbing the sounds of the street and the world around him. His first national recognition came when he spent seven years as pianist and musical director for James Cleveland, who had discovered him when he was playing one year at the annual conference of the Gospel Music Workshop of America (GMWA), as well as a year accompanying Gospel’s equally legendary Andrae Crouch. “One Church” is poised to carry Carr to even greater heights, who received an honorary Doctor of Divinity degree from Ohio’s Aenon Bible College in 2001.
“One Church” available in-stores NOW.

Sheet music for Kurt's first 3
singles (God Great God, God Blocked It and Let Our God Arise) is available for download on gospocentric.com
