Glory! Glory!
Editorial Reviews While Reverend Mason had limited piano instruction as a child, his gospel piano playing is almost entirely self-taught. His interpretation of gospel music has been inspired by the sounds of Reverend James Cleveland, Edwin and Walter Hawkins, and Elbertina "Twinkie" Clark. His piano playing is sophisticated and soulful. Reverend Mason often takes a traditional spiritual melody and creates a hypnotic groove.
