Hailstork names his four diverse pieces for trumpet Hymns, because of the hymn-like impression of the opening statements. These short pieces can be played individually or as a set, and can well serve within the worship service as processional or recessional. Four Hymns Without Words is available in two versions for piano or organ accompaniment.
"Music for trumpet and organ has a long grand history, especially as written by English composers. These four pieces were written to be used as separate service pieces or as a suite. I then decided to orchestrate them as a concert suite I had some themes that reminded me of church hymns, especially processionals, from my early years growing up as a singer in an Episcopal cathedral. I kept envisioning entrance music when I worked on Hymns 1 and 2, then quiet hymn (with a minor key ending!) as might occur in a Black church for no. 3, and, finally, a buoyant exit song for the recessional as the church doors are flung open to the sun.".
