Composed by John Wyeth, Robert Robinson. Arranged by Andrew. 20th Century. Score and parts. 8 pages. Richard Sheldon #3585357. Published by Richard Sheldon (A0.1028587).Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing is a longtime favorite of both religious and secular peoples across the world today. It is a very musical work that has stood the test of time because of how the reverent tone of the song is conveyed in the text, harmony, and melody. In this arrangement, a peaceful 5th is expanded into a majestic series of descending chords until there's a pause before the song begins with a quiet viola/cello soli. The song grows and grows changing, folding, and contorting until the whole group sweeps into the final verse, where the song quiets down and ends with a soft minor plagal cadence. This requires both musicianship and skill to master. The band must play as an ensemble and make music, not just play music.
Happy Playing!
