To all my Spanish Speaking Friends!

My website, http://www.arreglosgratisdehimnos.com/ will be discontinued in six months. Rather than continue to maintain two websites, I have decided to combine them into one. That means that directly following the English versions of my Ward Choir Arrangements, you will find a section that says, "Arreglos de espanol."

It will take me some time to transfer all the music over, so in the mean time, the Spanish site will still be up and running para mis amigos simpatios!

I hope this makes accessing the arrangements faster and easier for everyone.

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord!

Some Kind Words

Comment or Question: Thank you Linda for the use of "Love One Another" I needed something simple but beautiful for the young women to sing and this was perfect accompaniment. Thank you for making this piece available, you have a great talent. Sincerely, Julie

Sabbath Day

This beautiful hymn is often overlooked in our worship services. It is actually a prayer sung in rich melodies and harmonies. I have tried to keep the simple prayer style in this arrangement. It should be sung in a sincere, pleading style either accapella or with accompaniment.

Sharing

I love hearing about all of your musical experiences! Here is another one:

Linda, Thank you for your gift of creating wonderful music. I Am A Child Of God has a very powerful message. I was able to sing the solo arrangement with piano and flute accompaniment for our church. Thank you for sharing your gift and allowing me to share my gift with our congregation. Julia

New SAB Arrangement Completed

I decided to tweak my arrangement of Love One Another SATB. In the end I changed it into a completely different SAB arrangement. The last six measures are meant to be played much slower and softer than my playback feature can make them. So be sure to consider that during rehearsals. There are some juicy harmonies I think everyone will enjoy!

Thank you!

Some kind words from a Primary Chorister:

   Thank you so much for the piano solo of i am a child of God. I am having our primary children sing it and when they hear the accompaniment, I wish you could see their faces and hear them sing. It really helps that is is beautiful and not monotonous as singing 4 verses to the same music. Thank you.
