Product Description
This
new collection of Thanksgiving and Harvest hymns contains all your favorites,
or at least, most of them. Its probably all youll ever need for thanksgiving
and harvest festivals and the arrangements can be used for virtually any combination
of wind instruments. This is an essential title for any band library or for any
ensembles that are called upon to provide music for schools or churches.
Theres
also an optional but useful simplified keyboard part intended for less
experienced keyboard players. The left hand plays only the bass part most of
the time, with the right hand part kept as simple as possible. The piano part
too means that you can use the arrangements as solos, duets or trios. These
arrangements are intended either as stand-alone pieces that could be used as
interludes in a service, or they could be used to accompany solo, choral or
congregational singing. The score and all the parts are contained in a single PDF
file.
The
following 25 hymns are included: All
Creatures of our God and King (Lasst uns Erfreuen); As the Sun doth Daily Rise
(Innocents); All Things Bright and Beautiful (Bright and Beautiful); Bringing
in the Sheaves (George Minor); Come Ye Thankful People Come (St Georges
