Fantasy on Ebenezer

Williams, Thomas John, arr. Atteberry, John, G.I.A. Publications, Inc.

John Atteberry brings us a crisp, energetic, and lively adaptation of the hymn tune EBENEZER. The optional 3 octaves of handchimes provide a certain mystique and charm. This Level 3– arrangement is well suited to showcase an ensemble's agility and talent in a concert setting.

Fantasy on Lo How a Rose E'er Blooming

Hymn Tune, arr. Tiedman, David, G.I.A. Publications, Inc.

This beautiful, serene arrangement is even more moving when the optional handchimes are employed. A non-standard middle section finds the melody in minor, offering a fresh vision for the Advent season.

Instrumental Reflections for Worship

Various, arr. Evanovich, Joshua, G.I.A. Publications, Inc.

Isaiah the Prophet Has Written of Old

Hymn Tune, arr. Austin, Brenda E., G.I.A. Publications, Inc.

Praise My Soul the King of Heaven
