The title of this collection was inspired by the words found in Psalm 150 verse 4: ?Praise Him with stringed instruments?? (KJV). The audio sample features the third hymn in this collection: "Close to Thee"

This collection contains 10 favorite hymns arranged as easy instrumental trios (for two VIOLINS with PIANO accompaniment). From flowing and peaceful to upbeat and festive, these arrangements are a welcome addition to the repertoire for beginning string students. These familiar hymn arrangements are equally enjoyed whether used for recitals, worship services, or to make practicing more interesting.

All notes for both the VIOLIN parts on all songs are playable in the first position making these arrangements an excellent choice for early-intermediate string players. The PIANO accompaniment is written for an intermediate player.

For each song, there is a combined score (grand staff) with all three parts on each page (VIOLIN 1, VIOLIN 2, and PIANO) plus separate 1-staff scores for each VIOLIN part as well as a PIANO only score.

Each song is also available separately with accompanying preview pages and audio samples.

WEDDING SERIES - a set of popular songs and wedding standards that I have arranged for years. The formations are varied, from duos to orchestras with choir. The majority are sextets. Some instruments can be replaced and some arrangements have reductions. These options are provided.

IN MY LIFE - for 2 violins and harp (piano).

This song is widely viewed as one of, if not THE, most popular Christmas songs out there right now, and it's no surprise why. Many people have arranged this piece in a variety of styles and for a variety of instruments.

However, I have yet to see an arrangement for 2 pianos, 8 hands, and that specific instrument combination is lacking in repertoire, in my opinion. So I set to fill that gap, at least a little bit.

The intro was omitted in this arrangement, but if your group is really skilled, I'm sure you'll come up with a way to insert that in there.

Enjoy! This is my very first arrangement for this specific set of instruments.
