Product Description

The Hand of You is an arrangement of the 1920 hit pop song by Carrie Jacobs-Bond.  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.  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.   I also wrote a new slow introductory section with my own lyrics and melody that is based on what follows.  An incredibly beautiful piece, this is perfect for any wedding today, whether vintage or modern.  
4 page score; 2:15 minutes
I have published it in 3 different vocal ranges on this site:  High - low E to high F; Medium - middle C to high D; Low - low A to high B.   The MP3 recording is of the Medium Voice version.  
This piece is also found in my book, Vintage Wedding Songs, a collection of 5 songs which is also available on this site.
