Album Notes

World-Renowned Gospel Jazz Saxophonist, Courtney Fadlin Is Back!!

Fresh from his outstanding performance at the 1st Annual En Sound Music Awards, world-renowned gospel saxophonist Courtney Fadlin releases his fifth and one of his most compelling offerings to date, "Hymnology". Hailed as one of the world's best kept secrets in gospel Jazz, Courtney has impacted the hearts and lives of audiences around the world with his God-given talent and moving testimony. Unmoved by the call to do secular jazz, this young man keeps it real for Christ always.

The son of acclaimed Caribbean musician, Jethro Fadlin Sr., Courtney's early musical influences were sound. He pursued excellence while attending and ultimately graduating from Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts with a Bachelor in Music, and a Masters in saxophone performance from the University of Massachusetts Lowell.

Courtney's musical ministry has taken him to various cities in the United States, Canada, Europe and The Caribbean. While he has performed for both Christian and secular artists, he has maintained his convictions and never compromises his style.

Among the performers with whom he has shared the stage is, Ben Tankard, Warner Brothers recording artist John Stoddart, Hubert Powell, Melba Moore, Jamaican Reggae group "Culture”, legendary jazz drummer Louie Bellson and world-renowned jazz pianist Onaje Allan Gumbs. Gospel greats, Alvin Slaughter, Angie & Debbie Winans, Stephen Hurd, Willie & the Keynotes and Donnie McClurkin. In appreciation of his noteworthy talent, he has been invited to and has ministered at the Northern California Blues Festival, for the Governor General of Jamaica, and at a United Nations Conference held in Kingston, Jamaica.

He has released five albums - "Center of My Joy," "I Believe", "Another Chance" , “The Journey” and the latest " Hymnology"on the Acquire Records label.

Courtney seeks to exalt the name of Jesus through a committed Christian lifestyle and engaging musical performances. Concerned that many Christians only consider the voice an instrument of praise, He is determined to change that perception and lead believers to an appreciation of instrumental music as a gift from and a source of praise to our Lord and Savior. Courtney has dedicated himself and his gift to the expansion of his Father's eternal Kingdom. As you listen to this anointed musician, may the Spirit of God give you peace.
