Fernando Ortega has entitled his fifth major-label album Storm, which is cleverly appropriate when you consider the atmospheric feel of his record. Throughout the mix there's a quiet clarity of soft piano, rhythmic acoustic guitar, and even strings reminiscent of George Winston or Jim Brickman. The airy "Light of Heaven" is one of the most accessible tracks and draws comparison to Ortega's biggest previous hit, "This Good Day," from his 2000 Home release. Throughout Storm there's sonic tension, as Ortega's minor-chord verses offset big, shiny choruses. "Our Great God," a majestic and powerful praise and worship piece cowritten with Third Day's Mac Powell, carries the most potential yet falls a bit flat. You can catch a more muscular version of the song on the second City on a Hill release. Ortega also continues his tradition of reworking traditional hymns on a few songs, including a duet with Amy Grant on "Come Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy." --Michael Lyttle

Customer Rating:
Summary: A Gift
Comment: Nobody is making music for the glory of God today quite like Fernando Ortega. A strongly talented vocalist, pianist, and musical interpretator, and a really nice guy. On this album, "Light of Heaven" is a particular favorite. This great music that will calm and relax you on one song, inspire and motivate you on the next, and always move you to praise God.

Summary: Great Artist
Comment: One of Christian music's best kept secrets. Fernando combines the old and the new creating another awesome CD.
Customer Rating:
Summary: One of my favorites
Comment: It is not unusual for an artist to have one quintessential recording that documents them at the absolute peak of their creative talents. For Fernando Ortega STORM is that recording. Every cut is a gem. I love this album so much I've tried hard to develop a similar affection for Ortega's other music. Perhaps it's because STORM is so special I've found that hard to do.
Note: Be sure to check out 'Our Great God' with Third Day's Mac Powell on lead vocal on the third 'City on a Hill' album. It's even more powerful than the version here (Powell sings back-up).
