l Amazing Grace—Ryan Nowlin. The simple and
touching melody of this famous hymn is treated
to lush harmonizations and searing emotion. The
tune is presented three times, each time becoming
more impassioned. Original material between each
statement of the hymn serves to bridge the multiple
verses. After a change of key, the climax of the
work is delayed and extended before the music
evaporates back into its simplest and purest form.
