Tasteful collection of early to late intermediate hymn arrangements in a meditative style, appropriate for preludes and offertories at church services. I like to teach these, and I've even whipped them out and sightread them during church services myself when I needed to fill up a short interlude. The only reason I don't give this a better rating is that the choice of hymns seems appropriate for only one specific type of worship service. While I think it's very valuable to learn these old show more familiar war horses (The Old Rugged Cross, Sweet Hour of Prayer, In the Garden, Just As I Am), these pieces aren't so popular in today's worship services. I find that my students' churches are either of the Glory and Praise variety OR of the traditional classical variety, and hymns like "Abide With Me" aren't heard very often any more in either of those types. show less
