Product Description

This arrangement of the hymn tune St. Agnes ("Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee") is a relatively simple setting that requires only a two-manual organ and modest playing ability. A 12-bar introduction sets the mood. Each phrase of the tune then appears, each separated from the next by a brief interlude. Just as the piece seems to reach its conclusion, the final cadence is evaded and a second rendition of the melody is heard in another key. I have provided a full-length recording to aid the prospective buyer in the decision-making process. I encourage you to search the Sheet Music Plus or the Sheet Music Direct website for other hymn arrangements of mine, some for organ and others for piano.
