With a militaristic feel throughout, the violin soars over the piano accompaniment and creates improvisation-like embellishments and builds into each successive section of this arrangement.  The melody intertwines between the violin and piano in the final section, leading to a declamatory resolve.  This is an inspirational setting of the beloved melody that will uplift the spirits of your audience at your next performance.

The Bradbury hymn gets the classical music treatment with this arrangement.  A legato violin melody effortlessly sings over the consistent eighth-note drive in the piano.  The left hand of the pianist gets to play the melody alongside arpeggiations from both the right hand and the violin.  With final chord hits stereotypical of classical music to end the work, you and your audience will be thoroughly entertained in this cheerful rendition.

This Dorian mode melody may have a haunting quality, but it also brings a sense of hope to its listeners.  Its simplistic nature in the first verse, with arpeggios in the piano and the melody performed by the violin.  A slow Irish feel encapsulates the second verse noted by the violin's embellishments and of the melody.  The end of the work makes one final statement that embodies the hopefulness of the original hymn.  This will be a strong performance and worshipping experience for you and your audience alike.

By Christopher Alexander and Kelsei Peppars. By Ludwig van Beethoven. Arranged by Christopher Alexander. Christian,Religious,Sacred. 16 pages. Christopher Alexander #852674. Published by Christopher Alexander (A0.1260158).

Known all over the world, Beethoven's melody already makes its listeners smile with joy upon hearing its first few notes.  This arrangement seeks to heighten that excitement by creating a rhythmic and melodic playfulness from both violin and piano.  Loud fanfares encompass both ends of the work, and the melody receives a jocular rhythmic change in its original form while also utlizing meter changes of the atypical 7/8 and the compound 6/8 to sustain that new feel.  This will be a joyful experience for all!

Bonjour!  You will feel like being on the streets of Paris with this new setting of the familiar Easter hymn.  Set as a French waltz, the violin first performs the melody antithetically in a declamatory sense before joining the leisurely and simplistic meter established by the piano accompaniment.  Through it all, this arrangement has an easy-going feeling that will bring a care-free happiness to you and your audience and embrace the joie de vivre.  Au revoir!

By Christopher Alexander and Kelsei Peppars. By African-American Spiritual. Arranged by Christopher Alexander. Christian,Religious,Sacred,Spiritual. 16 pages. Christopher Alexander #852676. Published by Christopher Alexander (A0.1260159).

Using the familiar spiritual sung around many campfires, this arrangement preserves that invigorated spirit in an uptempo backbeat (boom-chick) rendition.  The violin becomes utilized as a ukulele, held on its side while its strings are strummed across the fingerboard, while the piano performs the melody.  The arrangement ends with a key change and embellished build to the final chord hit from both instruments.  You and your audience will have lots of fun with this work!

By Christopher Alexander and Kelsei Peppars. By W. S. Weeden. Arranged by Christopher Alexander. Christian,Religious,Sacred. 12 pages. Christopher Alexander #852672. Published by Christopher Alexander (A0.1260157).

Like the ebb and flow of the ocean tide, so does the rubato feel become inherent in this arrangement.  The piano establishes a gentle, yet persistent pattern in the piano while the violin performs the well-known melody with great reverence.  As the work builds, so does the tempo until the final chorus of the hymn brings the arrangement back to its original idea.  This will be an excellent addition to your church library.
