HYMN MINIATURES

Composer: WADE, JOHN FRANCIS

This delightful set of practical miniature arrangements of hymn tunes for organ is useful throughout the church year and is accessible to the average church organist. These short pieces not only enhance church services, but also prove invaluable to the church musician looking for something fresh to use during services. The styles of miniatures, which last anywhere from 30 seconds to a minute in duration, are sufficiently varied to maintain interestsome settings are meditative while others fanfareand they can be used during various parts of the service. The book includes a preface that discusses practical usage of the miniatures, citing some examples from te Veldes own experience. The publisher will provide a liturgical index and an index of first lines for the convenience of the organist.
