Product Description
JB Dykes famous hymn tune Nicaea is associated with the words
Holy, holy, holy Lord God Almighty, Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee...
This arrangement will be useful to accompany congregational or choral singing as it is in suitable keys or it can be used as a purely instrumental piece. After a short introduction the tune is presented simply - a key change before the final verse leads to a majestic presentation of the tune with an effective descant.
This arrangement is suitable for school orchestras and ensembles as well as more experienced players. The arrangement allows for a great deal of flexibility in presentation and will sound complete with as few as four players yet the scoring allows for expansion up to a full symphonic orchestra, concert band or brass band
As with all music available from Opus 3 Music this arrangement has been well tried and tested in performance - In this case by the Campbell College Orchestra where this orchestra of around forty players use arrangements such as this regularly in Services and concerts in the college.
