Traditionally, the 19th- and early 20th-century gospel hymns are easy to sing, quite melodious, and simple in their design. Consequently, many beloved gospel hymns are long remembered by thousands of church-goers who grew up with the familiar tunes ringing in their ears on Sunday mornings. Mr. Southbridge has skillfully crafted his arrangements of these eight enduring and dearly loved gospel classics, all colorfully arranged and simple to play. Suggested registrations and durations are included.
