Sacred Vocal Arrangements by Reece Yandle
Tuesday, February 27th, 2024Some of you may know my Dad, Reece Yandle. He passed away in June of 2022 at the age of 85.
I would like to host a tribute to Dad and his music in the near future.
It has been difficult to do so just yet but I will begin preparing
I miss him SO much but thankful for the music legacy he left behind about his Lord.
I’m honored to share his sacred vocal music here on my website. ( I do have some of Dad’s songs on youtube.)
I’ve entered five of his songs in my music store for the time being….and will publish more as time allows.
One of the sacred vocal solo songs entitled “Cleft of the Rock” has been a comfort to me s I sift through Dad’s music for the first time since his homegoing.
“In the cleft of the Rock is my refuge, He doth cover me there with His hand.
Though the storms of this life may beset me.
On the Rock of His promise I stand.”
Easy-Piano-Christmas Congregationals-Late-Elementary
Tuesday, November 21st, 2023Last year, I wrote out the following arrangements for my late elementary to early intermediate student who covered for me while I was out of town on a Sunday.
I created arrangements that would be easy for my student to learn in time to play. The student I’m speaking about is our Pastor’s daughter. She is now a true early intermediate and enjoys taking part in our music ministry. I’m excited with her progress! Would love to share what all she’s been doing but will save that for her interview after Thanksgiving.
Each of these arrangements include an introduction. The songs are also in a lower key for the benefit of our congregation. Our congregation sings out SO much more when we lower the hymns. These arrangements can be used for piano solos or congregational singing!

Early Intermediate Congregationals Collection Two: Just Published!
Thursday, August 17th, 2023Promo Sale! The collection is on sale through August 21st, 2023 until 10pm.
I had a person contact me recently requesting another collection of early intermediate congregational arrangements.
One of my daughter-in-laws will also benefit from this collection.
I decided to add an introduction to each arrangement. Also, most of the arrangements would make nice short piano solo offertories.
You could also use these arrangements for accompanying a soloist too!
Only two of the arrangements wouldn’t be able to stand alone as a piano solo…..”Are You Washed?” and “Sweet Hour of Prayer.” The reason why is because the melody is not supported throughout the entire arrangement. Some church pianists may be comfortable adding the missing melody in the few places per arrangement. Otherwise, these two arrangements are missing the melody notes here and there since it’s more of an accompaniment style.
