This collection of intermediate piano solos includes 20 arrangements of favorite classical pieces frequently used for weddings. All the songs in this collection are well-suited for processionals and recessionals of the ceremony participants (bride, groom, bridesmaids, groomsmen, parents/family, flower girl, Bible boy, ring bearer, etc.). Several of these songs can also be used as part of the prelude, as interludes during candle-lighting, or as background music for a reception.

These arrangements were created to make challenging classical music more accessible for the intermediate player or easier to sight-read by more advanced players (comes in handy when asked to perform on short notice). Another feature of these arrangements is they are consistent at the intermediate to advanced-intermediate skill level throughout each piece. Many have been simplified and only include excerpts from the longer original movements. Other simplified characteristics include easier key signatures, timings, and fingerings and some melodies were modified to create a more contemporary sound.

Each of the 20 arrangements is also available separately with accompanying preview pages and audio samples.

This arrangement of the joyful Gospel hymn ?Since Jesus Came into My Heart? by Charles Gabriel is presented here as an intermediate piano solo. The song begins with a bright and upbeat introduction and continues through the first verse. For the second verse, the song becomes slower and more expressive and then concludes with a repeat of the upbeat chorus of the first verse. Duration 3:00.

This arrangement will be one of the 16 songs in a new collection scheduled to be released later this year titled ?Hymn Favorites, Book 5.?

Designed for those times when a short, musical interlude is needed, this collection consists of six, one-page hymn arrangements, each taking about 1 minute to perform. In addition, all six of these hymns are arranged in the key of F major making it easy to flow from one to the next for more flexibility. Mix and match the 6 arrangements to create 2-3 song medleys. Each song is also easy to repeat if a longer instrumental interlude is needed.

While each song is specifically chosen to fit the Thanksgiving theme, these intermediate arrangements are also perfect to have on hand for filling the moments during or after a prelude, offertory, or prayer anytime of year.

This collection is also available (separate purchase) in a LARGE PRINT version.

Titles included in this collection:
Come, Ye Thankful People
Count Your Blessings
