anthems
todays choirs arent like yesterdays choirs
and truthfully many people dont want to hear anthems
honestly
some of that is because the musicians today couldnt really handle effectively
some of the anthems of yesterday
and todays choirs just arent shaped up for the challenge
most of those anthems require that both singer and musician read music well
here are some anthems that are really nice and really not too hard to teach or play
praise to the lord the almighty
really nice anthem
arranged for organ and trumpet
I play both parts on my four manual custom made rogers
but you could play one part on a keyboard and the other part on a hammond with the vibrato turned off
and just the principles open (8and 4)
