Ajoutée par crosby3145, 16 Déc 2017 Some hymns are better for composition practice than others. May the Grace of Christ Our Savior is a good example. Originally written as a short piece for violin and orchestra by Beethoven, this tune is very similar to one Beethoven might have used in one of his variations—hence, a great opportunity to practice writing like Beethoven. In arranging this hymn, I listened to a couple of his variations and tried to use the same tricks he would have used. The result is, hopefully, a piece that sounds like Beethoven was responsible for all of it. I hope you enjoy! If the piece is longer than what you need for your church service, you could easily cut some variations to make it shorter. The tune wound up fitting perfectly this hymn of John Newton (writer of Amazing Grace), a benediction as well as a portrayal of the Trinity. 1. May the Grace of Christ our Savior, And the Father’s boundless love, With the Holy Spirit’s favor, Rest upon us from above. 2. Thus may we abide in union With each other and the Lord, And possess, in sweet communion, Joys which earth cannot afford.
