Fernando Ortega is something of a rare animal in the genre of Contemporary Christian Music (CCM)."The Breaking Of The Dawn" can easily be seen as a philosophical descendant of Psalm 95 or the music of Martin Luther. It's primary aim is not to explore human experience, or to entertain or instruct, but to extol, glorify, and exalt. The fundamental emotion it expresses is that of spiritual gratitude. This is praise music that feels uncommonly honest and unaffected.
