4 When the Train Comes Along MedleyGreg
Gilpin. Three popular spirituals: When the Train
Comes Along; This Train and The Gospel Train, make
up this dynamic and rhythmic mini-medley. Packing
tons of energy, it's also a fabulous choice for use
as a closing number or encore. Gilpin's smart piano
accompaniment emulates the rhythmic motion of a
train and provides added interest and excitement.

4t Who's That Knockin'?Greg Gilpin. Don't
miss this extraordinary original a cappella spiritual!
An insistent melody opens the piece in unison,
then fully develops with rhythmic syncopations,
varied choral textures, and dramatic dynamics. A
challenging mixed-meter section and a compelling
descant build anticipation, then terraced dynamics
set up the final, powerful "Should I let him in?"
Highly recommended!

H Amazing Gracearr. Jack Schrader.
Absolutely inspired! Jack's perspective on this
beloved melody is to use a slow, gospel style.
The authentic piano accompaniment has all the
piano licks you could possibly want, and supports
the arrangement just as well as the marvelous
orchestral track. In a creative twist, the last verse
features the instruments on the melody as the
choir acts as "back-up singers" to the piano.
Part of our American heritage, Amazing Grace is
a hymn everyone knows, and this arrangement
adds a richness to the melody that you simply
must hear to appreciate.

Kitty alone and I."

creative programming gem will provide a marvelous
contrast on your next concert or festival.
