Smith. This is the kind of work for which Robert Smith has become so well known! Percussion plays a vital role in this dazzling theme and variations, based on an original hymnsong by the composer.

The lyrics and music of this hymn express a true feeling of inner peace and joy that is displayed with little or no alteration, letting the natural beauty of the melodic line speak for itself.

Heartwarming and spirited, it is sure to leave a lasting impression on everyone. 10909645 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 85.00 10909646 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 15.00 In Paths of Truth and Grace—arr. Randall D. Standridge. A wonderfully musical work for concert band based on the hymn My Shepherd Will Supply My Need.

This is a deeply moving, emotional work for concert band, an ideal choice for winter and holiday concerts, and we recommend it very highly! 2261451 Band Set & Score . . . . . . . . 72.00 2262269 Additional Score . . . . . . . . . 12.00 Tomorrow too late?
