Product Description

My Prelude on the hymn tune Mit Freuden Zart ("Sing Praise to God, Who Reigns Above") is intended for church pianists looking for interesting arrangements of hymns familiar to their congregations. My arrangement consists of two sections. The first hints strongly at the Mixolydian mode in the key of D, while the second employs the Aeolian mode in C-sharp. The piece begins with a 14-bar introduction before the hymn tune appears, accompanied by a rhythmically energetic combination of rests and parallel triads. Then the melody moves to the bass, accompanied by a spurt of eighth-notes in the key of B major, creating a short bitonal passage. After brief references to other keys, the main key of D returns. The second section presents the melody harmonized with parallel triads and accompanied by a constantly moving stream of octaves in the left hand. I have provided a full-length recording to aid the prospective buyer in the decision-making process. I encourage you to search the Sheet Music Plus or the Sheet Music Direct website for other hymn arrangements of mine, some for organ and others for piano.
