Piano,Vocal,Voice - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1218745 Composed by Carrie Jacobs-Bond. Arranged by Phil Beaman. Classical,New Age,Romantic Period,Wedding. Score. 4 pages. Phil Beaman #815182. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.1218745). The Hand of You is an arrangement of the 1920 hit pop song by Carrie Jacobs-Bond. Â The lyrics are a tender love story about how throughout our relationship everything is fine as long as I can touch the hand of you. Â In order to emphasize this simple and powerful emotion, for the first verse I simplified the original ballad's thick chords into a more shaped and expressive two part writing, just single notes in each hand; then for the second verse I did a reharmonization of the melody, adding some simple harmony and octaves for the climax; then back to two part for a slower, softer ending. Â I also wrote a new slow introductory section with my own lyrics and melody that is based on what follows. Â An incredibly beautiful piece, this is perfect for any wedding today, whether vintage or modern. Â 4 page score; 2:15 minutesI have published it in 3 different vocal ranges on this site: Â High - low E to high F; Medium - middle C to high D; Low - low A to high B. Â The MP3 recording is of the Medium Voice version. Â This piece is also found in my book, Vintage Wedding Songs, a collection of 5 songs which is also available on this site.
