A lush, a cappella arrangement of one of the most beloved hymns for SATB divisi choir.

In the Garden

SSAATTBB Octavo

This is a new melody to John Newton's eternal text. For Male Quartet, SATB Choir and piano, parts are also available for small orchestra (MMS 7020 SO), or a condensed version for piano, organ, flute, percussion and strings (MMS 7020 CO). The middle section starts with the opening line from C. H. Gabriel's "I Stand Amazed" and proceeds through a worship portion to the grand finale, diminishing to the echoing sounds of the quartet. This has always elicited an incredible response from congregation or audience.

Amazing Grace/I Stand Amazed

A tone poem for either Violin and String Orchestra (MMS-3001) or Full Orchestra (MMS-3002), this suite in six movements paints a vibrant picture of the southeast's favorite season. From the last clutches of winter's grip to the first long, hot days of summer - with ample "buzzing" in between - this piece details as much spring as can be packed into fifteen minutes. The Full Orchestra version's palate of instruments includes harmonica and a full saxophone section, reflecting the varied musical styles of the "Music City."

A Nashville Spring

Score & Parts

<p>An extraordinary part of a Good Friday service or concert, like a small oratorio, this piece explores the moments in scripture where Jesus Christ is proclaimed or implied to be "the Lamb of God." Accompanied by organ or any of the three sizes of orchestration - chamber, small or full - this is a fitting and uplifting ending to any evening. Let it take you to high and holy places.</p>

Behold the Lamb of God

SATB/SATB Octavo

"The best arrangement of this piece I ever heard!" This, from the producer of a prominent radio show. This arrangement is part of a complete work in three movements simply called "Christmas," written for children, adults, piano, organ and percussion. If a Children's Choir is not available or the music too challenging for them, their parts can be sung by a separate women's group. Separate parts for piano, organ and percussion are available as a free download from the publisher.

Joy to the World

SSA/SATB Octavo

A marvelous, but challenging piece for large a cappella choir, when the Gaithers heard this performed they described it in this way, "pours like melted chocolate through my mind." You can see this premier performance at the YouTube link below. Use this for Lent or any time of the year.

Gentle Shepherd

From the Advent movement of Heimermann's "Christmas," this arrangement ushers in the season with grand anticipation. Originally written in a higher key for children and adults, this SATB divisi version is much more accessible for most church choirs.

Come, Thou Long-expected Jesus

Originally written for SATB choir and rock band (see YouTube link below), there have been many variations in the accompaniment since its premier. A powerful piece for Easter, or, for that matter, any time of the year, the possible accompaniments are: Choral and Piano, Choral and Organ (these choral scores are identical except the accompaniment), with other options being Organ, Piano, Brass Quintet and Percussion (MM-7013 BQ), Chamber Orchestra (MMS-7013 CSO), Full Orchestra (MMS-7013 C) or the original rock band (MM-7013 RB).

Worthy Is the Lamb

SSATBB Octavo

The opening movement of "A Symphony of Psalms," this piece features a children's choir, SATB (divisi) choir, piano and cello. Besides a scoring for full orchestra, which is only available with the complete work (MMS - 3003), an orchestration for piano and string quartet is also available (MMS - 7008x). The octavo works with any of the arrangements. This is a brilliant capturing of the creation through the simple children's voicing of verse 14 - let the words of my mouth... This is an entire Psalm.

Psalm 19

Starting with the opening men's chant, through everyone's favorite a cappella section in the middle, to its lofty finale, this piece - a musical rewording of the Lord's Prayer - is ultimately rewarding for both the choir and congregation as well as the organist. Besides this original version for organ and choir, other orchestral accompaniments are available from the publisher.

Heavenly Father

SSAATB Octavo

This is an arrangement of one of the beloved hymns penned by Fanny J. Crosby and W. H. Doane, "Though Your Sins Be as Scarlet." Great for Lent or general purposes, the haunting tones of the oboe weave in and out of the choir and organ throughout the piece. The oboe part is included in the octavo.

White as Snow

SATB Octavo

The second movement of "A Symphony of Psalms" in a reduced version for children, SATB choir, piano, organ and optional 6-piece brass with the option of adding the congregation on the final choruses. A printable page for the congregation is included. Psalm 81 is a history of God's involvement with the Jewish people. You will be "shouting for joy" at the conclusion of this piece!

Psalm 81

SSAATTBB Octavo w/Organ

<p>An admonition during the Advent season that leaves us looking up in expectation at it's ethereal finish.</p>

Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates!

Full Orchestra Score & Parts

Chamber Orchestra Score & Parts

A massive reconstruction of Michael W. and Deborah D. Smith's epic hymn, "Shine on Us," this prayer can be used at any time of the year. A score for Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Horn, Organ and Strings is also available from the publisher in the keys of C, Db or D with optional parts for an advanced Children's Choir.

Shine on Us

Let your children shine! Supported by your adult choir from the bridge to it's rousing finale, this one reinforces and encourages the early involvement of your children supported by a caring and nurturing congregation. Please view a video on my YouTube channel.
