Thisis an essential collection of twenty-two favourite Easter hymns arranged forclarinet choir or for virtually any combination or number of clarinets. The publicationconsists of full scores for each hymn plus parts for 1st clarinet inB flat, 2nd clarinet in B flat, 3rd clarinet in B flatand bass clarinet in B flat. The 1st clarinet and 3rdclarinets have duplicate parts for E flat clarinet and E flat alto clarinetrespectively. You could of course include alto and tenor saxophones if necessary. There?s a piano part too, so you can also use the arrangements assolos, duets or trios. All the parts are contained in a single 100-page PDFfile. They are intended either as stand-alone pieces that could be used asinterludes in an Easter service, or they could be used to accompany solo,choral or congregational singing. The music has been set in clarinet-friendlykeys and they are compatible with the brass collection of the same name. Thepiano part has been written for with the early intermediate pianist in mind,though some hymns are actually quite easy.

The Promised Land is Michael Ware's instrumental solo arrangement of the American Folk Hymn, On Jordan's Stormy Banks. It is available in versions for Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Soprano Sax, and Alto Sax. Remind the listener that their hope is not in this world but beyond the Jordan in a land that God has promised.

From Palm Sunday to the Resurrection, this collection of hymns are specially arranged for unaccompanied solo instruments.
