Here is a beautiful, gently flowing arrangement for an instrumental trio (CELLO and VIOLIN duet with PIANO accompaniment). The tune is the traditional American melody
PLEADING SAVIOR from Joshua Leavitt's
"Christian Lyre." Though this song is known by many titles, this title,
"Rainbow of His Love," corresponds to the lyrics about the rainbow by Flora Kirkland (lyrics sheet included for reference).
The VIOLIN carries the melody for the first verse while the CELLO adds harmony. For the second time through the song (after a short piano interlude), the CELLO carries the melody while the VIOLIN alternates between a descant and harmony.
This is a fairly easy and straight-forward arrangement for both instruments and accompanist. The range for each instrument is as follows: VIOLIN ~ F4 to A5; CELLO ~ A2 to D4. For both the VIOLIN and CELLO, all notes are playable in the first position making this piece an excellent choice for early intermediate string players. Duration 3:00.
The purchase price includes these printing options: 1. a grand staff (9 pages) with all parts on each page
2. separate scores for the CELLO and VIOLIN (2 pages each) and PIANO (4 pages)
3. a combined CELLO and VIOLIN score (4 pages)
This arrangement is one of the 10 songs in the collection "Praise Him with Stringed Instruments, Book 3 (Collection of 10 Hymns for Violin, Cello, and Piano)."
