Your heart, and the hearts of your listeners, will soar as you play these moving, musically sophisticated solo piano arrangements. These "prayludes" are medleys of popular carols, designed to be playable in several lengths, with optional starting and stopping points suitable for everything from a short musical filler to an extended offertory. They are easy to prepare, but musically satisfying, showing the creative spark Ruth Elaine Schram is known for. The nine medleys in this new set of "prayludes" will take you through Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, and the beginning of the new year. Titles are: Come, Emmanuel; The Father's Love Blooming; Sing We Christmas!; Holy Child in a Manger; Once in Bethlehem; Go Tell It, He Is Born!; Silent Night/The Friendly Beats; Men and Kings Seek Him and Shimmer, Shimmer.
