Product Description

The beloved hymn by Silas J. Vail (words by Fanny Crosby) is presented here as a flowing, peaceful instrumental trio (for VIOLIN and CELLO duet with PIANO accompaniment). Both the CELLO and the VIOLIN get to lead with the melody at times making this a fun and equally challenging piece for both instruments while adding variety for the listeners.

The VIOLIN plays the melody for the first verse and the CELLO leads with the melody for the second verse. This beautiful, inspiring instrumental arrangement is an ideal selection for a church setting and a valuable addition to your sacred string ensemble repertoire. Duration 2:15.

The range for each part is as follows: VIOLIN ~ D4 to F#5; CELLO ~ B2 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.

The purchase price includes these printing options:
1. a grand staff (6 pages) with all parts on each page
2. separate scores for the CELLO and VIOLIN (1 page each) and PIANO (3 pages)
3. a combined CELLO and VIOLIN score (2 pages)

This arrangement is one of the 10 songs in the collection "Praise Him with Stringed Instruments, Book 2 (Collection of 10 Hymns for Violin, Cello, and Piano)."
