Cathy Stamegna #783668. Published by Cathy Stamegna (A0.1183971). An expressive Gospel rendition of Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross (a.k.a. “Near The Crossâ€) has been newly-arranged as a Piano Solo (Upper Intermediate and above).  The audience will be moved by its soulful rhythms and harmonies.  Although it is a slower tempo, melodic embellishments, chord substitutions, grace notes, and subdivisions of the eighth note into sixteenths and triplets in 6/8 make it best-suited for the Upper Intermediate Level pianist.  A four-measure transition creates a modulation from F-C Major.  Appropriate as a Lent, Holy Week, Easter solo, worship, concert, contest/festival, or recital piece.  Adaptable to school or church settings.  Performance Time: 3:30.Â
