Love Thy Neighbor

Welcome friends!

This page is for those of you interested in using some of my work in your own church or worship service experience! There are versions of my song(s) available here that are JUST the instrumental track -- so you can add your own flair to the song! Other resources (such as CD labels or case inserts, for example -- not all songs will have them, though...) will be listed here for your use as well!

All I ask is that you don't rip me apart too badly. I'm posting these materials here in good faith that they'll only be used as they were intended -- as these works are all inspired by/for my love of God and His Son, Jesus Christ, I ask that you treat them accordingly with respect. It's NOT my intent to make money in any form by using the gifts and talents God's given me -- to do so would put a bad taste in my mouth.

2012 >> Pandora's Box

Media Files

Performance Track - This is the music only, NO vocals (though this performance does include the EWQL Symphonic Choirs [Tenors, basses, and a Boys choir] and their "oo's and ah's"). For those wishing to sing along without christo's vocal recordings, for use in any manner you deem fit. It is the property of humanity; not of me.

2011 >> Amazing Grace (instrumental)

Media Files

Both the 'My Tribute' recorder performance by christofori and the stand-alone/accompaniment track of Amazing Grace are available on my music page! Please go there to download whichever one you're looking for, if you haven't already! :)

Labeling/Artwork

Custom 'Amazing Grace' CD Insert - This 'Insert' will fit inside a jewel CD case (either standard width or slimline). The inside includes the six official verses (or stanzas) commonly and widely used for the song.

Custom 'Amazing Grace' CD Label - A custom graphic formatted for the standard Avery optical media label packets, available in stores near you. The label theme is bright, airy, warm, compassionate; and loving; which of course is to represent a physical manifestation through nature of God's grace.

Not to allow wandering in the minds of the readers, though -- but I should point out that not just nature can be such a bright example; for a far more common manifestation of His grace can/should be found in those who believe in Him..!

2011 >> Believe!

Media Files

Performance Track - This is the music only, NO vocals (the windchimes at the end are also not in this track; that was a late addition prior to mastering the track itself). For those wishing to sing along without christo's vocal recordings, for use in worship or reverance of God/Jesus/Holy Spirit only..! ;)

Labeling/Artwork

Custom 'Believe!' CD Insert - This 'Insert' will fit inside a jewel CD case (either standard width or slimline). The inside includes the song lyrics.

2011 >> Changes

Media Files

Performance Track (main) - This version of the song is identical to the 'release' version but without the vocals.

Performance Track (NO solo) - This version of the song has no vocals NOR ANY instrumental solo; just the music. :)

Performance Track (alt. solo) - This version of the song is meant for any who might prefer to perform the song with the Alto Recorder solo during the 'break.'

Alternative (Alto Recorder solo) - This one's an alternative to the 'release' version, where the guitar solo has been replaced with a solo I performed on Alto Recorder; I'm singing the vocals.

'All-Play' - This version of the song is for anyone that feels my 'layering' skills are gone -- it includes not only the vocals, but also the guitar solo AND the recorder solo played simultaneously..! For the 'die-hard' christo fans I 'spose. Really, I figured 6 mp3 versions was a better number than 5 would've been, was the primary reason... ;)

Labeling/Artwork

Custom 'Changes' CD Insert - This 'Insert' will fit inside a jewel CD case (either standard width or slimline). The inside includes the dedication text as well as the song/poem lyrics.

Custom 'Changes' CD Label - A custom graphic formatted for the standard Avery optical media label packets, available in stores near you. The label depicts a 'road sign' pointing upward (towards the Heavens) for Changes! This is meant to remind us all to look towards God for His guidance and direction, as changes loom ahead along our paths.

2011 >> Childlike

Media Files

Performance Track - This version is the background music I composed, with no lyrics sung by me whatsoever! (I didn't have THAT bad a voice, did I??) There is no seperate version for instrumental solos; as the solo violin part during the chorus is meant to be representative of Jesus playing (though He'd play it much better than I wrote, I'm sure..!) -- you don't get to put your own in, this time. ;)

Labeling/Artwork

Custom 'Childlike' CD Insert - As with all my current/new releases, 'Childlike' includes PDF files for single releases to assist you in customizing your own copy of the music. This one is for the 'Insert' which, in this form, is set up to be 2 pages -- it actually is front and back of the insert, which can then be cut, folded, and will then fit perfectly inside a jewel CD case (either standard width or slimline). Simply cut around the rectangular graphic and then fold, using the side with the 'enlightened baby' and song title facing out/front of your CD case. You may need to play with it slightly to get your printer to print the lyric content on the inside -- but it should be easy enough as it takes exactly the same amount of space as the outside graphic.

Custom 'Childlike' CD Label - A custom graphic formatted for the standard Avery optical media label packets, available in stores near you. This allows someting a bit more 'fancy' than the ol' sharpie, for those who might be interested. ;)

2011 >> FOCUS

Media Files

Performance Track WITH Solo- This version is the background music I composed, with no lyrics sung by me whatsoever! (I didn't have THAT bad a voice, did I??) However, for those of you not instrumentally inclined, this version DOES include the synth solo heard in my public version of the song.

Performance Track WITHOUT Instrumental Solo - This version is the background music I composed, with no lyrics sung by me nor does it have the synth solo heard in my public version of the song. I thought there might be those out there inclined (like me) to dabble with both worlds -- feel free to dabble your derndest! :)
