Description

“Heartstrings Worship” hymns are arranged so that any combination of string players, large or small, young or experienced, can create musically rewarding, worshipful music together.

Each string part includes a melody line as well as additional harmony lines so you can pick (and vary) the most effective combinations for your group of players, anything from a simple solo with piano to a full string orchestra!

String parts are manageable for most players with 1-2 years experience, and the piano parts are intermediate. The arrangements may be played exactly as written, but “roadmapping” is encouraged! Consider:

  • Using the optional violin 8vas
  • Giving different instruments melody after the repeat
  • Playing unison one time, then using all harmony parts for a full texture another time
  • Starting with one instrument alone, then adding more in as the hymn progresses
  • Stringing the hymns together for prelude or postlude settings

The combinations are endless. Enjoy discovering them for years to come!
