Description:
New from Jason Krug comes this assortment of creative, contemporary piano arrangements of carols, hymns, and spirituals that are sure to delight the listener. These intermediate level pieces are short and accessible to most pianists and are a great way to brighten up a prelude or musical interlude. “All Things Bright and Beautiful” has a joyful, rhythmic flow and is a perfect painting of the light and beauty of this well-known tune. The arrangement of “Be Thou My Vision” shifts effortlessly between 3/4 and 9/8 meters, conveying the exhilaration of St. Patrick’s triumph on Slane Hill, while “In Excelsis Gloria” combines the French carol pat-a-pan with the French folk tune une jeune pucelle into a bold expression of Mary’s visitation and Christ’s birth.
