Zak Williams And 1 Akord

Revisited

Brand NEW Music CD

When was the last time you revisited something? A memory, a thought, a place? The ability to remember brings us powerful revelations. Through memory we can relive, reimagine, and access different versions of ourselves. Remembering helps us to appreciate the past and cast a vision for the future—one that refocuses and realigns us. Remembering prepares us for what God has in store.

Scientists have said for years that music is one of the most powerful ways to recall a memory. For many of us, one chord or one a key can transport us back in time to relive any moment. In Zak Williams and 1/Akord’s latest gospel release Revisited, we’re taken down memory lane to remember and taken to the present to appreciate those full circle moments.

Zak Williams and 1/Akord have been together since 2003. This year they celebrate 20 years as a gospel choir. A veteran of the gospel music industry, Zak Williams, a prominent musician and songwriter, has been a mainstay in Philly’s gospel choir scene for more than 30 years.

It is through the choir that we hear community in song. We hear the grounding of the tenor, the harmony of the alto, the melody of the soprano and the stabilizing affect of a bass or baritone voice. Together they bring us depth. Voices becoming one create a special vibe. Only a choir can do that. It’s the unifying of singers, those with varying ranges and tones and personalities committed to being one. The gospel choir is what brought us classic songs, such as For the Good of Them, the hymn Jesus I’ll Never Forget and Philly favorite That City—all of which appear on Revisited.

“Revisited means to consider again. In this project we wanted to rearrange and present these songs from a different perspective,” Zak Williams.

In the Revisited gospel project, there are new and classic selections, which help us to not only recapture the beauty of knowing where we came from but appreciate where we’re going. Do you remember what it felt like when you first heard the Doxology—Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow? To hear church congregations and choirs sing this hymn? Hear it fresh and anew today. Revisit that moment and listen to Revisited.
