In “Hymns of Exaltation,” Simon has arranged 8 well known and loved hymns for late intermediate - advanced levels that range in style from contemporary, classical, and new age, to a cinematic, score-like sound. This 72 page book includes all of the lyrics so performers can sing along with the accompaniment. You will enjoy playing and singing these hymns as you have never heard them performed like this before.
It is the hope of the author and publisher that each of these hymn arrangements will uplift, inspire, comfort, and empower the performers and listeners. Hymns are magnificent because they help us focus on that which is of most worth to us. As we listen to the melodies, we think of the inspired words of the hymn.
The order of the hymn selections in this book has a deliberate order. As we look at the beauty of this earth, our souls are stilled. We have imperfections, but we strive to be nearer to God. By doing so, we stand amazed and ask God to abide with us. We need Him and His light in our lives because He gives us more holiness. We hear His voice and come to Him because He loves us and we are His.
Here are the 8 hymns from the book:
1. For the Beauty of the Earth
2. Be Still, My Soul
3. Nearer, My God to Thee
4. I Stand All Amazed
5. Abide With Me
6. I Need Thee Every Hour/Lead Kindly Light
7. More Holiness Give Me
8. If You Could Hie to Kolob (the melody is the same for "I Heard the Voice of Jesus," and "O Sing a Song of Bethlehem," among other titles.
"What I love about arrangements of well-sung songs done by various artists is that one can hear the pianist's personality come through in a very real and intimate way. Jerald's passion for life and his beliefs come through in his unique and distinctive arrangements of well-known religious hymns." Kurt Bestor (Pianist, Composer, Owner, Kurt Bestor Music)
Samples from the book...
"Simon has arranged some of the most beautiful hymns that may not be as familiar to you as others. They are musically challenging and are perfect for the advancing student or performer. The arranger notes preceding each selection are most helpful and include scales, chords and rhythmic practice. A solo vocal line with lyrics is included which make these hymns ideal for performance." - Kudzo Music
