Review:
The tunes associated with “Leaning on the Everlasting Arms” and “On Jordan’s Stormy Banks” combine beautifully in this captivating work. The key and meter changes are easily negotiated at the indicated tempo. The first section features the "Jordan's Stormy Banks" melody supported by a driving, upbeat malleted bass line. The second section is more flowing and includes chimes in the bass clef, and the final part is grand and maestoso. Hints of "Leaning on the Everlasting Arms" are scattered throughout. This 93-measure medley is set in D Major,F Major, and Ab Major.
