Easter Piano Duet!

Thursday, March 29th, 2018

I know…last minute… but needed to write a piano duet for myself and a friend to play this Sunday morning. I kept trying to find an easy one to throw together at the last minute but couldn’t find exactly what I wanted.

So…I created an easy piano duet of “Christ the Lord is Risen Today”.  My life has been crazy busy and haven’t had a chance to practice in advance…so this piece worked out great!

Christ the Lord is Risen Today!
Late intermediate to early advanced Easter piano duet. (one piano four hands) 4 pgs. *Price covers two copies. Written for a fast & easy to learn situation! (for the early advanced pianist)
Price: $5.25

Mina Oglesby’s Music

Monday, March 5th, 2018

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looking forward to attending a lady’s retreat to hear Mina Olgesby speak and sing!

If you ever listen to BBN or Rejoice Radio… then you have probably heard Mina sing.

She has recorded 20 Cds which are available on her site. For a limited time…. 3 Cds for only $20!

A nice assortment of Mina’s songbooks are also available for only $1 each (on sale).

One of my favorite songs by Mina is “We Have a Savior Who Cares”such a comforting piece!

Today I added the solo version arrangement for “The Potter’s Hands” (words & music by Mina and arranged by Jenifer Cook.)

A nice Easter selection by Mina about the Lord’s return is “Rest Will Come in the Morning” …very upbeat 🙂

Sacred Violin Solo: Nearer My God to Thee

Monday, February 26th, 2018

My daughter-in-law, Jackie Cook and I finally got together to create this video of my sacred violin arrangement of “Nearer My God to Thee.”

Thank you Jackie for suggesting that I create a violin arrangement for “Nearer My God to Thee”.  It was also a blessing to hear you play this piece!

I am not a violinist by nature 😉 so….Jackie gave me several great pointers in order to maintain the intermediate level of this arrangement.

I hope this arrangement of “Nearer My God to Thee” is a blessing to you as well.  Sheet music available HERE

Side note:  Jackie’s next violin solo request “This is My Father’s World”.

Abide With Me (fingering tip)

Wednesday, January 17th, 2018

Many of you have purchased my advanced or real advanced arrangement of “Abide With Me”

Someone recently requested I share fingering suggestions for measure #30. Another tip about this measure…I take it slow enough to handle the excessive movement in the left hand.

*See video below to hear measures #22 through #30  (time marker 1:01-1:26) It will give you a better idea of how this transitional section flows into the new key.

It Came Upon a Midnight Clear: Early Advanced Christmas Piano Solo

Saturday, November 11th, 2017

I had almost forgotten about this early advanced piano solo of “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear”.

I actually offered it for “free” back in 2015. This particular Christmas piano arrangement is featured on my “Simply Christmas” CD.

I did this arrangement off the top of my head…so it’s more of a “free style” arrangement.

It’s a challenge for me to transcribe an audio arrangement to paper!

There are a few minor changes that I just HAD to make 😉

It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

I just published “Hark the Herald Angels Sing” early advanced piano solo in my online music store.

The lyrics in this Christmas carol depict a celebrative mood..announcing Christ’s birth.  I enjoyed creating a festive  sound throughout this arrangement. The entire arrangement will be published on youtube soon.
