Behold ­ When I Survey This new arrangement of the tune of Rockingham Old combines a lush MIDI orchestration of muted trumpets, stunning string ensembles, steel acoustic guitars, warm pads, choir aahs, and acoustic grand piano with lilting organ registrations beginning with shimmering celestes building up to a powerful combination of principals, flutes, mixtures, and mutation stops that lends itself well as a congregational anthem. Christ the Lord Is Risen Today This old favorite Easter hymn would make an inspiring prelude or postlude for Easter services. Resounding trumpets and brass sections with hauntingly beautiful tubular bells complement traditional organ sounds in an arrangement that will uplift the spirit in a powerful anthem of worship and praise of the risen Savior. Go To Dark Gethsemane This arrangement of a Lenten tune ending in an uncharacteristic E-flat minor key would serve a useful role as a prayer response. The accompanying MIDI orchestration blends a striking solo flute, an oboe, a clarinet, and a bassoon with a thrilling string ensemble, beautiful tubular bells, and an acoustic grand piano. Combining this orchestration with flutes, celestes, and bourdons produces a soothing, contemplatory piece of celebratory music honoring the events from the last hours of the life of Christ to His triumphant resurrection from the dead. Hallelujah Chorus Handel's Messiah has long been a favorite musical work for the Christmas season. Yet, the work relates the entire life of Christ including his death and triumphant resurrection. This arrangement of the "Hallelujah Chorus" contain a breathtaking MIDI orchestration of oboe, tuba, new age pad, timpani, string ensembles, and acoustic grand piano. The suggested organ registrations build on this powerful foundation with principal choruses in both the Swell and Great divisions and a full pedal registration that rumbles underneath. The arrangement is a perfect celebratory anthem for Easter services that will surprise and inspire congregants as they worship the risen Savior. In the Cross of Christ I Glory, Rathbun This hymn, inspired by a bronze cross above the ruins of a South Chinese village ravaged by a typhoon, is a thrilling arrangement using Rodgers advanced MIDI capabilities and sampled pipe organ voices to produce a compelling and moving moment in musical worship. The MIDI orchestration uses Trumpets, Tuba, Timpani, Reverse Cymbal, new age pad, and church organs in combination with a full organ registration that concludes in an awe-inspiring wall of gorgeous sound. Intermezzo, from Cavalleria Rusticana This Intermezzo from the verismo opera, Cavalleria Rusticana, is a wonderfully playful piece that will grab the attention and the emotions of even those who are not fans of operatic music. The MIDI orchestration composed of an oboe, soothing string ensembles, a remarkable orchestral harp and a striking contrabass is quite exciting as it tugs at the heart. The organ registrations build on this playful and emotional piece starting with shimmering celestes, a warm pad, slow strings, and bourdon doux. The musical tones build until the full MIDI orchestration is accompanied by a full organ registration of principal choruses, string ensembles, and Mixtures leaving the listener awed by the "king of instruments" as it takes us on an emotional and passionate musical journey. Near The Cross This Fanny Crosby hymn arranged as an organ and piano duet is a playful reworking of an old favorite for many generations. The suggested organ registrations rely on Gemshorn, Bourdon, shimmering celestes, and chorale to create a sparkling musical accompaniment that is quite pleasing to the ear. And, should you choose to use the accompanying MIDI orchestration as well, the duet will include a gospel organ and an acoustic grand piano. This new arrangement is an arresting musical tour de force. O Sacred Head This hymn often mistakenly attributed to J. S. Bach uses delightful baroque sounds perfect for a prelude or postlude. The suggested organ registration for this piece includes a nazard that adds a delightful bite to the music. The MIDI orchestrations also add a glorious English horn, stirring harpsichords, a lovely string ensemble, a remarkable recorder, an electric grand piano and an acoustic grand piano. The liberally appearing thirds throughout the piece will delight all who hear this very playful arrangement. The Palms If you are looking for an anthem suitable for celebrating Palm Sunday, look no farther than this arrangement of Faure's "The Palms." With two alternative suggested registrations and an accompanying orchestrations relying on lush strings, a bright oboe, a solo flute, a joyous brass section, church organs, and acoustic grand piano, you can't possibly go wrong with this uplifting piece of music celebrating Christ's triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Were You There This beautiful African American spiritual is a beautiful arrangement perfect for a prayerful meditation for congregations contemplating the sacrifice of our Lord and Savior. Using a marvelously simple organ registration relying on celestes, gemshorn, and chimes, this hymn will remind congregations of the simplicity of the gospel message. The orchestration is hauntingly beautiful relying on strings, warm pads, an oboe, choir aahs, a brass section, and church organs to remind all of us of the wonderful sacrifice made on our behalf on that fateful crucifixion day. What Wonderous Love, Wondrous Love This simple, yet stunningly beautiful, arrangement of quite an old hymn has something to please almost everyone. A starkly soft beginning registration relies on warm pads, celestes, slow strings, and bourdon doux that underlies the delightfully off-beat MIDI orchestration. The organ registrations build throughout this piece until it ends with strings, flutes, principals, gedackts, and warm pads blended in a triumphant song of praise to the wondrous love of our Savior. The MIDI orchestrations accompanying the organ include a playful shakuhachi, a powerful English horn, a lush string ensemble, orchestral harps playing in unison, a bright brass section, a church organ, a haunting atmosphere effect, and a lovely acoustic grand piano. This arrangement is a wonderful way to worship the Savior during the Lent and Easter season.
