Great is Thy Faithfulness Piano Arrangement (PDF file for download)
Very Advanced Level (Concert/Diploma/Professional Level)
Suitable for offertories, specials, concerts, recitals. Not for congregational accompaniment.
Verse 1 starts in a familiar key of Eb major, with leaping octaves, hemiola (2 vs 3) rhythms, voicing challenges, and scale patterns.
Verse 2 modulates to the key of Gb major, a challenging key of 6 flats, voicing cantabile melodic lines over arpeggiated semiquaver patterns.
Verse 3 modulates to the triumphant, bright key of E, reflecting the lyrics "bright hope for tomorrow." Combination of motifs from Verses 1 & 2.

Great is Thy Faithfulness
This is a wonderfully written arrangement of a hymn. It is straight forward to read but also, technically challenging. I hope Abigail continues to arrange music for Diploma level. Simply wonderful for church or concert.
