Grace and Majesty: Nine Hymn Arrangements for Organ arr. Marianne Kim
Marianne Kim’s first organ collection as the Organ Editor at Beckenhorst Press contains nine hymns arranged for organ solo. Satisfying but without unnecessary difficulty, these settings are a taste of what is to come as Beckenhorst reinvigorates its longstanding commitment to repertoire for church organists. Titles include: “Praise to the Lord, the Almighty,” “The King of Love My Shepherd Is,” “Jesus, Lover of My Soul,” “Children of the Heavenly Father,” “Postlude on O Worship the King,” “It Is Well with My Soul,” “Abide with Me,” “Faith of Our Fathers,” and “To God Be the Glory.”

O Worship the King: Hymn Tunes Paired with Classics for Organ arr. Marianne Kim
This compelling collection from Marianne Kim is centered around pieces that combine traditional hymns with pieces from the classical repertoire. In each arrangement, the two elements are seamlessly and evocatively combined for a compelling result. Several of the classics are vocal and orchestral pieces, but most are themselves organ works from the great 19th and 20th century French romantic tradition. Marianne has rounded out the collection with two original pieces that are themselves indebted to the French organ tradition: a gentle pastorale and a fiery toccata. Titles include: “Alas, and Did My Savior Bleed with Pie Jesu,” “Amazing Grace with Air on the G String,” “O Sacred Head, Now Wounded with Chant pastorale,” “Petit pastorale in F,” “O Worship the King with Grand choeur in F,” “Wonderful Peace with Priere a Notre-Dame,” “Toccata in G minor,” “What a Friend We Have in Jesus with Prelude, fugue et variation,” and “Rock of Ages with Andante religioso.”

The Holy City: Hymn Settings with Jazz Spirit arr. Marianne Kim
Marianne Kim’s signature jazz-tinged style pervades this new collection of hymn settings. Nearly all the hymn tunes are American in organ, including folk hymns, spirituals, and 19th century gospel songs. Varied characters provide music useful for preludes, offertories, or postludes throughout the church year. Titles include: “What a Friend We Have in Jesus,” “All the Way My Savior Leads Me,” “Battle Hymn of the Republic,” “Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing,” “I’ve Got Peace Like a River,” “If Thou But Suffer God to Guide Thee,” “Jesus Loves the Little Children,” “Postlude on The Holy City,” and “We Shall Overcome.”

Hymns of Faith: Organ Settings with Jazz Spirit arr. Marianne Kim
In this organ collection, Marianne Kim arranged some of her favorite hymns with her signature jazz-influenced style. Included are eight familiar hymns of faith and assurance, most of which are drawn from the beloved American gospel tradition. Also included is one exciting original postlude. Titles include: “Blessed Assurance,” “I Need Thee Every Hour,” “Jesus Loves Me,” “Joy, Love, and Peace,” “My Jesus, I Love Thee,” “Nearer, My God, to Thee,” “Only a Step to Jesus,” “Softly and Tenderly,” and “Leaning on the Everlasting Arms.”
