Composed by Dmitri S. Bortnansky/ Thomas Moore. Arranged by Kristine Johanek. Children,Folk,Standards. Octavo. 8 pages. Kristine Johanek #4303207. Published by Kristine Johanek (A0.707971).Here is a sweet arrangement of the Vesper Hymn written for two part treble choir, with piano and handbell accompaniment. There is a good amount of unison singing, but there are also harmony parts for both soprano and alto voice parts. This piece was written with the beginning choir in mind. Repetition in the vocal harmony parts is set off by the use of dynamic contrasts which are inspired by the lyrics. The bell part can be played by handbells, tone chimes, hand chimes, or even a keyboard set to a chime voice. (Handbell part is on the last page of the octavo.) The piano part was written to be played by a young accompanist, and so is also repetitive in its notes with contrast being provided by varied dynamics. This piece is approximately two and a half minutes long, and makes a nice concert closer for community youth choir, school concert, or children’s honor choir. (Although the word ‘hymn’ is in the title, there are no religious references that would make this unsuitable for a community or public school performance.)
