Jazzy Hymn Arrangements Book One - Paperback

by Phil E. Hamm (Author)

"Jazzy Hymn Arrangements" Books One, Two, Three, Four, Five and Six are aimed at the intermediate pianist for use at church or at home. Finger numbers have been included to make learning faster and easier. These easy to play arrangements have lush jazzy chords that compliment the original melodies and rhythms. I have chosen what I believe to be the best known and loved hymns to Christians around the world. These short pieces ( 30 seconds+ to however many times you need to repeat ) are designed for offertories and interludes. I have left room for the more advanced player to add their own improvisation. The selections in book one include: A Mighty Fortress is Our God, All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name, Amazing Grace, Battle Hymn of the Republic, Footsteps of Jesus, Holy, Holy, Holy, I Surrender All, Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross, Jesus Loves Me, Jesus Saves, Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam, Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee, ( Ode To Joy ), Just As I Am, Nothing But the Blood, There Is a Name I Love to Hear (Oh, How I Love Jesus), Revive Us Again, Rock of Ages, Shall We Gather At the River, Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus, This is My Father's World, Throw Out the Life-Line, What a Friend We Have in Jesus, When The Saints Go Marching In, Wonderful Words of life and Communion Medley (Let Us Break Bread Together/Break Thou the Bread of Life).
