9x12 inches. English-German-French-Dut ch.

After he had survived a heavy sea storm, John Newton (1725-1807), captain of a slave ship, became a priest and from then on he fought for the abolition of slavery. During his tenure he wrote several hymns, of which Amazing Grace certainly is the best known. The melody assumedly derives from a song by the African slaves. Takashi Hoshide has written a compelling arrangement of this beautiful melody.

Nachdem er einen heftigen Seesturm glücklich überlebt hatte, wurde John Newton (1725-1807), der bis dato Kapitän eines Sklavenschiffs gewesen war, Pfarrer und kämpfte fortan für die Abschaffung der Sklaverei. Während seiner Amtszeit schrieb er mehrere Kirchenlieder, von denen Amazing Grace sicherlich das bekannteste ist. Vermutlich stammt die Melodie von einem Lied der afrikanischen Sklaven. Takashi Hoshide schuf ein unwiderstehliches Arrangement für Blasorchester dieser schönen Melodie.

Après avoir survécu une violente tempête en mer, John Newton (1725-1807), marin de commerce et capitaine de navire négrier, devient pasteur et lutte pour l’abolition de l’esclavage. Durant son ministère, il écrivit plusieurs hymnes, dont l’intemporel Amazing Grace. Il est fort probable que l’air vienne d’une mélodie chantée par des esclaves africains. L’arrangement de Takashi Hoshide est purement irrésistible.

Dopo essere sopravissuto ad una violenta tempesta in mare, John Newton (1725-1807), capitano della propria nave e mercante di schiavi, divenne pastore e cominciò a battersi per l’abolizione della schiavitù. Scrisse diversi inni, il più celebre dei quali è Amazing Grace. L’aria è probabilmente ripresa da una melodia cantata dagli schiavi.
