I just finished inputting the surprise Easter piano solo arrangement into my note software!

Now for the final touches before publication. It’s four pages in length (Two verses and two choruses)

Here’s a peek at one of the measures…

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

Event Link:  Hymns of Comfort & Guidance

My husband came up with the hymn selections dealing with comfort & guidance.

Here’s my playlist:

Several of my viewers are asking for sheet music to a short video I did on youtube this past week. The four hymns were spontaneous. So, in time I will try to create at least one more from that particular video.  It will probably be “Near to the Heart of God”.

“All the Way My Savior Leads Me” was the first hymn I played in the short video.  I would guess this is an early advanced level. My spontaneous pieces do not always have much structure but you’re welcome to wade through my homespun version of this hymn.

This piece wouldn’t take much prep time for the early advanced to advanced church pianist.

All the Way My Savior Leads Me

Early advanced sacred piano solo, 3 pgs. One of Jenifer's homespun arrangements she penned to paper when viewers asked for a printed arrangement of one of her spontaneous pieces on facebook live.

Price: $3.75

Thanks to those who encouraged me to create sheet music for  All the Way My Savior Leads Me.

Merry Christmas to you all!  I’m sharing the edited version of my recent Facebook Live event…December 20th 2022

Suggestion: If you want to see the links to available sheet music for some of the pieces I played….First….enlarge the video below and click the word “youtube” on this video. Once you’re viewing this video on youtube…see the sheet music links in the video description underneath the video.

Sorry but I have not had the time to input a lot of music into sheet music this Christmas.  Here’s a quickie for the elementary level of Hark the Herald Angels Sing.

I wrote it for my ten year old grandson to play at this year’s recital and offertory at church.

He enjoyed learning it…especially the intro and big bass ending!

The arrangement consists of an intro, verse, chorus and ending…all in the key of F Major.

Hark the Herald Angels Sing

Christmas piano solo (elementary level) Two pages in the key of F Major. I wrote this for my ten year old grandson to play for recital and for offertory. He especially enjoyed the intro and big bass ending!

Price: $2.75

Just thought I would show you a peek of Allissa, one of my piano students, who I’m training to be a church pianist.

She is doing very well!  I write the songs for her to play at her level so she can already be getting “hands on” experience before she’s even playing out the hymnal. She has been doing some reading from the church hymnal.

In the following raw video…Allissa is practicing with a young girl’s group while the choir loft is being decorated for this Wednesday night’s annual Christmas play by the kids of our church.  Looking forward to the program!  Our youth Pastor’s wife writes a play for each year!  She is very talented!

I enjoyed arranging All Creatures of Our God and King.

What an uplifting hymn!  The author of this song, Saint Francis, is better known as Giovanni Bernardone.  He wrote over sixty hymns.

“At the age of 25 Bernardone left an indulgent life as a soldier, renounced his inherited wealth, and determined to live meagerly and to imitate the selfless life of Christ.”  Amazing Grace 366 Inspiring Hymn Stories for Daily Devotions by Kenneth W. Osbeck

This arrangement is written with the intermediate church pianist in mind.

All Creatures of Our God and King

Sacred intermediate piano solo, 3 pgs. 1:27 time length A nice piece year round but especially for Thanksgiving. An excellent competition piece as well!

Price: $4.00

I have had readers asking if I could combine all the early advanced to advanced Christmas arrangements that are currently in my online store.

All of these selections are also sold separately.  

So…here’s the Christmas piano collection as requested with a total of fourteen songs.

February 28, 2024  Update:

I am working on a “FREEBIE” for “What a Friend We Have in Jesus”  congregational style.  (Not intended for piano solo since it’s accompaniment style) Download it HERE

Our church LOVES to sing What a Friend We Have in Jesus!  As I was playing for them to sing last night, I thought, “I could just download and capture that part of our service and use it as a teaching tool.

So…You’ll have to listen to the two clips below and notice the instructions embedded in the clips.   These fill-in tips are only meant to be suggestions.

I know each church pianist has their own version of fillers but I thought I’d share a couple for you all to grab by ear.  Of course not every church pianist plays by ear so….I can create up to several of these fillers in written form once I hear from you all.  Please leave your fill-in requests below in the comment section so I can start creating a few in print for you!  🙂

Ah!  I’m hearing you all now!  I will see what I can do about sharing some of these fill-ins for “What a Friend We Have in Jesus”

I’m assuming most of you play this song in F Major…..right?
