For those who purchased my advanced piano arrangement for “One Day”.

Here are several tips that may help as you practice this piece for Easter.

About a month until Easter to learn this very advanced piano solo.

I like how this hymn summarizes Jesus’ life.

This would make a great Christmas or Easter arrangement!

We use this hymn all year round in our congregational singing or for a choir special.

One of my piano students requested this arrangement of Then Sings My Soul for a piano competition piece.

If you’ve been following my posts over the years, Allissa will sound familiar to you. Allissa has just recently approached a true intermediate level.

She is the one who requested an arrangement of this well-loved hymn.

I tried to add some phrases that sound similar to my advanced version of this hymn.  Below….is  the video of the early intermediate arrangement for Then Sings My Soul.

Then Sings My Soul

I just ran across this very well-done movie of Fanny Crosby’s life.

Highlights:

Fanny dictated over 40 hymns in one sitting!

Fanny added words to her favorite friend’s tune which created “Blessed Assurance.”

The public was use to getting hymn publications from various authors, so….Fanny’s printing company gave her over 250 pen names to get around this problem 😉

Fanny’s love for others were evident even on her deathbed. She wrote a note of encouragement to a dear grieving friend who had just lost her daughter.

Here’s a quick update on the hymn “One Day”.

I’ll be playing facebook live tomorrow evening, February 2nd at 7:30 pm EST.
