How Sweet The Sound! is currently SOLD OUT!
How Sweet The Sound! is an album compiling 15 songs that I wrote or arranged for the singing circles I've led. In addition to a CD recording of singing from actual circles, it includes a little yellow book with a story about the origins of each song. Feel free to listen to some samples for a taste. I hope you'll love this collection of musical honey!
"For those who know Doug or those who don't,
How Sweet The Sound! shows a master at work,
taking ordinary, untrained mens' and womens' voices,
with care and inspiration, turning them into "a single
woven voice, rising prayer-like and powerful..."
—Bill Denham, Poet
"Doug, I love your CD. It is just like being at
one of your evenings with all the joy and beauty
that you inspire in the singers."
—Dan Zola, Mythologist, Producer of Great Night
of Rumi
“Singing with Doug
is pure joy. Doug is
a musical tour guide through an entire spectrum of experience, from antic
exuberance through deep reverence. Anyone who declines the opportunity to
sing with Doug is a damned fool.”
Richard Engling, Chicago Theatre Director
