The Church Pianist: Angels We Have Heard on High (Transposed)
Friday, December 24th, 2010I’ve always enjoyed singing the Christmas carol, “Angels We Have Heard on High”. My favorite key to sing this hymn is E flat Major. We have a small congregation and this key works out very well for them. Generally, we transpose all hymns at least one step lower; making it easier for the congregation to reach the melody with confidence. (All of our congregation sings melody).
I understand not all church pianists know how to transpose. Therefore, I’m sharing this transposed version of “Angels We Have Heard on High” in E flat Major; simple four-part style as it would appear in the hymnal.
