PLEASE NOTE: THE AUDIO DOESN’T SEEM TO BE WORKING FOR EVERYONE.  

WE’RE WORKING ON A SOLUTION (HOPEFULLY)

In the meantime: Click HERE to hear sample on my facebook music page.

I’m working on what’s becoming a VERY advanced piano solo arrangement of “Great is Thy Faithfulness”.

When creating advanced piano arrangements…I constantly hear a lot of  notes that the soloist can’t reasonably cover on one instrument.

It would actually be easier for me to write a two piano arrangement to accommodate ALL the notes.

Just wanted to warn my readers that it’s very advanced…since I pulled out all the stops 😉

Here’s a sample audio “in the works”:  Great is Thy Faithfulness (key change section into second verse)

Clarification: The image to the right shows the beginning (not included in this sample audio)

Great is Thy Faithfulness became a public domain hymn this past January!

I have an advanced piano arrangement in the works for this well-loved hymn to be published by the end of September 2019.

Here’s a sneak preview of the first page:

The following pieces are great easy-to-learn piano arrangements for students needing a recital piece or for beginning church pianists!

My students play two ensemble numbers in addition to a solo piece…so we don’t get too involved with just one piece.

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

Late elementary Christmas Piano Solo, 2 pgs. Easy-to-learn piece for recital or offertory

Price: $2.75

O Little Town of Bethlehem

Late beginner Christmas Piano Solo, 2 pgs. Easy-to-learn carol for recital or offertory.

Price: $2.00

I enjoy creating pieces with a certain student in mind. This particular piece goes to one of my older female students who enjoys playing songs in a minor key.

The idea for the introduction hit me as I laid down to sleep this past Wednesday.  I had to get up and write it down or the idea would have been history!

Even though I’m an advanced level pianist, I still enjoy playing this early intermediate arrangement of “O Come O Come Emmanuel”.

O Come O Come Emmanuel

Early intermediate Christmas piano solo, 2 pgs. A nice selection for Christmas recitals or offertory.

Price: $2.75

Christmas Arranging Galore!

I just finished writing three Christmas piano arrangements today for several of my students!

I’ll publish them asap…hopefully by this weekend. The titles and levels are as follows:

O Little Town of Bethlehem (Late beginner)

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen (late elementary)

O Come O Come Emmanuel (Early intermediate)

Also in the process of writing the teacher piano parts for two piano ensemble numbers for Christmas recital.

Piano ensemble numbers are getting popular with my bunch of students. They absolutely LOVE playing in a group setting!

They like it so much that now they have one group lesson rehearsal once a month now until Christmas recital! The titles are: “Jingle Bells” with bell ringing in couple places 🙂  Also..O Come All Ye Faithful (our grand finale number)

I’m REALLY in the writing mood here lately. Hopefully you’ll see the results soon!

I originally wrote this arrangement for one of my piano students and then forgot about it.  This arrangement of “Lead Me to Calvary”makes an excellent choice for the Lord’s supper, Lent, offertory or another devotional time in your service.

Lead Me to Calvary

Just thought I’d share a couple links to patriotic songs.

My Dad, Reece Yandle, wrote this vocal solo years ago and it remains one of my favorite vocal patriotic songs.

The song is entitled, “In God We Trust”.   It has been used as the theme song for a teacher’s convention and sung by dad at different meetings.  People were always asking for a copy of the song so I wrote it out and published it a while back.

Dad has written many songs! I need to publish more of them.  Presently, Dad has at least six songs of his available in digital format (pdf sheet music) on Sheet Music Plus’ site found by clicking HERE.

Dad’s song of “In God We Trust” can also be purchased by clicking the “Buy Now” button below which will direct you to Sheet Music Plus’ site.

In God We Trust

Medium range sacred vocal solo; 4 pgs *Great for a patriotic special! *Price covers two copies.

The final  selection is a patriotic piano solo (early advanced) of “God Bless America”  that I wrote several years ago.

I entered this patriotic piano arrangement in a contest sponsored by Sheet Music Plus and was surprised to hear I won first place in the sacred piano solo contest.

“God Bless America” is still under copyright so I’m unable to create a video recording of the arrangement.  I received special permission to create the written arrangement.

If you’re wanting to purchase this arrangement…be aware that it’s only for sale on Sheet Music Plus due to the copyright agreement.

When you click on the “buy now” button…you’ll be re-directed to Sheet Music Plus’ site where you’re able to purchase the piece.

I’m making another one of my sacred piano arrangements, “He Hideth My Soul” from the “Funeral Collection” available as a single arrangement.

At least several of my sacred piano solos from my “Funeral Collection” are sold separately.

Late intermediate sacred piano solo, 4 pgs. Approx. length: 1:38 *Available here as a single arrangement and also in the Funeral Collection.

Here’e the recording of “He Hideth My Soul”

Enjoyed recording this new wedding song “Hearts Forever Joined” during our vacation this past weekend.

Suggested use: during the prelude to a wedding or after the recessional.

I guess you could say this is my first non-lyric tune to write. Words may come at a later date but wanted to make

it available as prelude or postlude music for a wedding.

We tried our best to create the right balance of (background sound with piano but the river was too overbearing)  😉

Last year’s recording was a little easier because the water wasn’t as busy as this place.   I still enjoyed the backdrop!

Hearts Forever Joined

Early advanced piano solo for a wedding. (no lyrics) 3 pgs. Approx. length 1:28
