As with the other books in the series, the arrangements are designed for easy sight reading, with the potential to embellish them on the fly to create more complex arrangements in your own style. In addition to the hymn arrangements, the book includes tips and suggestions on adding your own introductions and endings as well as improvising variations. Recordings of all hymns are available as a free download.\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSongs: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the Cross\u003cbr\u003eChrist the Lord is Risen Today\u003cbr\u003eCrown Him With Many Crowns\u003cbr\u003eGod Will Take Care of You\u003cbr\u003eGreat is Thy Faithfulness\u003cbr\u003eHave Thine Own Way, Lord\u003cbr\u003eHe's Got the Whole World in His Hands\u003cbr\u003eI Love to Tell the Story\u003cbr\u003eI Need Thee Every Hour\u003cbr\u003eI Surrender All\u003cbr\u003eIt is Well With My Soul\u003cbr\u003eMy Faith Looks Up to Thee\u003cbr\u003eNearer My God to Thee\u003cbr\u003eO How I Love Jesus\u003cbr\u003eOnward Christian Soldiers\u003cbr\u003eRock of Ages\u003cbr\u003eSavior Like a Shepherd Lead Us\u003cbr\u003eSoftly and Tenderly\u003cbr\u003eStand Up, Stand Up for Jesus\u003cbr\u003eTake Time to be Holy\u003cbr\u003e'Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus\u003cbr\u003eTrust and Obey\u003cbr\u003eWhen I Survey the Wondrous Cross\u003cbr\u003eWhen the Roll is Called Up Yonder\u003cbr\u003eWhen We All Get to Heaven\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrom the author's Introduction: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs with other books in this series, the arrangements in this book are meant to be easy to play, easy to read, and most of all, easy to extend. There are two basic approaches to playing fingerstyle arrangements: memorize every note of an intricate piece and play it the same way every time, or start with an outline of the tune, and improvise variations. The first approach has the advantage that the notes are worked out ahead of time, but takes work to memorize. The music may also get stale over time, since everything is locked in. With the second approach, memorization is easier (or maybe even unnecessary), and you can continually explore new variations, making the music more fun to play, and maybe more fun to listen to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHymns work well for the second approach, because there are so many hymns, and people are likely to request their favorites, particularly for special services. It would be difficult to maintain a large enough repretroire of complex arrangements to cover all situations. The arrangements in this book are designed to be pulled out at a moment's notice, allowing you to perform with minimal preparation. These sketches are similar to those found in \"fake books,\" but designed for solo fingerstyle guitar. Jazz fake books are typically limited to just chord names and perhaps melody. These arrangements provide a bit more than that - basically easy-to-play arrangements with no complicated parts that are designed to be extended on the fly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52160050397458,"sku":"9798482586679","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_7b729e1f-d5f1-47f8-90dc-5953a0c2f6ac.jpg?v=1775033015","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/more-hymns-for-fingerstyle-guitar-9798482586679","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
