The words and music of the hymns in this collection have resonated for many years in the hearts of Christians in the British Isles, from within tiny village church buildings to vast cathedrals. These familiar hymns now appear in all hymnals around the English-speaking world. English composer Stephen Burtonwood's arrangements are all brief in length and present these strong tunes in a clear manner. They are usable as flourishes for postludes and introductions or as expressive music for interludes and contemplation.
