Enhance any praise and worship service with these flexible fingerstyle arrangements of classic hymns. Beautifully suited for solo guitar, these selections also work perfectly with a congregation or instrumental group. They are ideal for playing at the start or conclusion of any service, as musical interludes during prayer time, Offertory, or Scripture reading, or for simply enjoying at home. Seasonal songs are included as well, making this collection one you will enjoy all year long. Each hymn is arranged twice to cover a wide scope of playing abilities. The first time through is presented in a basic setting that is followed by a more challenging arrangement-play one version or both! Because the same hand positions are used, the first setting lays an easy foundation for the more elaborate fingerstyle techniques used later on. Performance notes, chord symbols and lyrics are included, and all the music is shown in standard notation and TAB. A complete performance of each hymn is provided on the CD.
