Practical Pairings: Accessible Medleys for the Church Pianist arr. David McDonald
The arrangements in this practical collection prove that one plus one really is three. David McDonald pairs two beloved hymns in each thematic-focused arrangement, showcasing why medleys are a favorite of so many church pianists. Written at an accessible level and perfect for worship through the year, the hymn texts are included to center personal worship and musical interpretation.
Titles include: “Mighty God Medley (I Sing the Mighty Power of God & A Mighty Fortress Is Our God),” “Love Medley (Jesus Loves Me & Jesus Loves Even Me),” “Grace Medley (Amazing Grace & Grace Greater Than Our Sin),” “Praise Medley (Praise Him! Praise Him! & Praise to the Lord, the Almighty),” “God’s World Medley (This Is My Father’s World & For the Beauty of the Earth),” “Thankful Medley (We Gather Together, An Ash Grove Thanksgiving & Come, Ye Thankful People, Come),” and “Blessing Medley (God Be with You & The Lord Bless You and Keep You).”
