Product Description

The inspiring poem by Sidney Lanier titled "Into the Woods My Master Went" has been set to a variety of tunes. This string duet arrangement (for 2 VIOLINS) uses the hymn tune by Peter C. Lutkin. Set in a minor key, the solemn, reflective melody matches the deeply thought-provoking lyrics (see below). Though the lyrics may seem archaic at first, by reading through the words and meditating on the meaning, the beauty of the message becomes clear. This song is especially suited for a prelude or offertory during the season of Lent and Easter.

Two unique verses are included interspersed with flowing and melodious interludes. VIOLIN 1 and VIOLIN 2 alternate leading with the melody throughout both verses. All notes for both VIOLIN parts are playable in the first position making this arrangement an excellent choice for early-intermediate string players. However, being in a minor key, a few D#'s are scattered throughout both VIOLIN parts which may require planning alternate fingering for smooth note transitioning.

The purchase price includes a 4-page combined score with both parts on each page plus separate 1-staff scores for each VIOLIN (2 pages each).

This arrangement is one of the 10 songs in the collection titled "Easy String Duets: Easter Hymns for 2 Violins (A Collection of 10 Violin Duets)."

Lyrics Verse 1
Into the woods my Master went,
Clean forspent, forspent,
Into the woods my Master came,
Forspent with love and shame.
But the olives they were not blind to Him.
The little grey leaves were kind to Him,
The thorn tree had a mind to Him,
When into the woods He came.

Lyrics Verse 2
Out of the woods my Master came
And he was well content;
Out of the woods my Master came,
Content with death and shame.
When death and shame would woo Him last,
From under the trees they drew Him last,
'Twas on a tree they slew Him-last
When out of the woods He came.
