Composer/arranger Owen Middleton delivers the goods in these intermediate-level, idiomatic arrangements of 21 traditional hymns and patriotic songs for solo classic guitar. The book includes optional parts for cello and flute in supporting and lead roles. Written in standard notation only, a few tunes feature altered tunings. Light left-hand fingering is provided for the more challenging passages as well as access to online audio for each piece.Middletons years of experience as a choral singer and composer for the guitar and piano shine through in these tasteful settings; his awareness of voice-leading concepts, inner parts, and basslines often gives these time-honored melodies a modern twist.

A river finds its ripples: the traditional gospel tune "Down to the River to Pray" flows into the surging waters of rhythm and blues. Recommended for church services, youth rallies, praise gatherings and other worship events, as a prelude, an offertory, a postlude or special music. This rendition - a flute trio - also makes an appealing performance piece for recitals and concerts. Key: G major. 12 pages of music (that includes the score and separate two-page pullout parts for each flute).
