Here is an easy instrumental duet arrangement (for BOWED PSALTERY solo with PIANO accompaniment) of the ever-popular spiritual "We Are Climbing Jacob’s Ladder." The psaltery part was designed for a beginning psaltery player and includes only half and quarter notes and 1 flat (B♭ = A♯). The piano accompaniment is at the intermediate level.

To assist those new to reading music notation, two solo parts are included: one is the standard music notation and includes the lyrics for sing along enjoyment. The second solo part is identical to the standard music but instead of lyrics, the note names are provided below each note (example A, B, C…).

The psaltery plays the melody for the first verse and then adds harmony for the second verse. The song concludes with the psaltery playing melody for the final tag. A piano accompaniment and/or rehearsal track (MP3 format) is available for this arrangement as a separate purchase: "We Are Climbing Jacob’s Ladder (Piano Accompaniment Track for Easy Bowed Psaltery Solo)."

The range of a typical soprano psaltery is two octaves beginning with the G above middle C (G4). However, since some psalteries have fewer than 25 strings, the range for this song is less than 2 octaves. Also, the notes are written an octave lower on the staff to avoid the ledger line notes that would be required to notate the upper notes. The notated range for this song is C4 (middle C) to F5 (the second F above middle C).

The purchase price includes a combined score (grand staff, 3-stave) with both parts (PSALTERY and PIANO) on each page, plus 2 options for the 1-staff solo part (one with lyrics, one with alphabetic note names).

This arrangement is one of the 10 songs in the collection "Hymns and Choruses (A Collection of 10 Easy Bowed Psaltery Solos with Piano Accompaniment)."
