Amazing Grace is a beautiful hymn arranged here for Solo English Horn and Piano.

Amazing Grace is perhaps the best-known and best-loved hymn in the world. The writer, John Newton, led a dissolute life as sailor in the slave trade for many years before marriage, along with a close encounter with death at sea, dramatically changed his perspective. He lived out his later years as a devout and charismatic clergyman in the English countryside, renowned for his direct and personal style. The words he wrote in Amazing Grace are an intimate retelling of his spiritual journey.

The hymn was written in 1773, and was sung to many different melodies initially, but since the mid nineteenth century it has become most closely associated with the famous folk tune melody presented here, New Britain.

The standard is early intermediate. Players with a year or two?s experience will enjoy playing Amazing Grace. This gospel hymn is ideal for use in concerts or worship, formal or informal.
