Product Description


Close to Thee (Thou my Everlasting Portion) - Piano Solo arrangement by Alex Thio


This is Alex Thio's solo piano arrangement of the beloved Christian hymn by Fanny Crosby: Close to Thee. Her words were set to music by Silas Jones Vail and this piano arrangement weaves his beloved melody through three verses and choruses - each one supported by playable and style-appropriate accompaniment patterns. Some reharmonizations occur throughout this arrangement, lending the listener to fresh and heartwarming harmonies which serve to enhance the comforting words this hymn offers. Appropriate modulations (from F major to D major and finally to G major) provide a different "scenes" in each verse - your performance of this arrangement will only aid in lifting the listener's soul.

Suitable for the late intermediate through advanced pianist, it may be performed in concert setting or programmed within a church service. I hope you'll find this piano arrangement of Close to Thee one that moves and inspires you. - Alex Thio, pianist/arranger
