A Quarantine Project: Harmony #4 — AWAY in a MANGER

A Quarantine Project: Harmony #4 — AWAY IN A MANGER

SO WE'RE ALL STILL STUCK INSIDE

Original harmonization: AWAY IN A MANGER

Yep, you read right. Voices United #6, still in the Advent section, is "A Candle is Burning," to the tune Away in a Manger, and so it's next on my list. James R. Murray put this tune out there in 1887, and I've done stuff with it before (not to mention the text) but this is a fresh harmonization this 25th of March, because why not.

As usual, there's a link to a PDF in the caption of the photo.

PDFs! PDFs! It's a ... file format used to share documents!

Next... hmmm... not #7, it's copyright 1989, so... #8. Es ist ein' Ros. Now there's a challenge.

Hymn-A-Week 30 - Last of the year!

Thirty hymns of 2015 are available for free at this link!

A friend of mine, looking through my hymn tunes, asked me if I ever had a hymn text in mind when I wrote these. Given that this is being published Christmas week (and that Thursday is Christmas Eve, hence the early publication), I decided I would approach this one with a definite Christmas text in mind.

So here is a new tune for Away In A Manger, which already has about a quadrillion tunes, so what's one more?

This is the last hymn tune I will write this year, since I'll be on vacation next week! But back in to the swing of things for 2016. Happy holiday season and a Merry 2016 to all readers!

Business stuff!
