Piano - Intermediate
Seasonal Settings that Warm the Heart. Composed by Mark Hayes. Sacred, Advent, Christmas. Lorenz Publishing Company #70/1621L. Published by Lorenz Publishing Company (LO.70-1621L).

Item Number: LO.70-1621L

Echoing the success of the first "Mark Hayes for the Intermediate Pianist," a collection of hymn settings, is this new collection of Christmas carols just in time for the Advent and Christmas season. Hayes has written creative, fresh settings of familiar carols that sound hard but are easily played by intermediate and advanced players alike. Special attention is given to smaller-handed pianists...no excessive use of octaves, no large leaps or chords, and thinner but satisfying harmonic textures. However, the trademark Hayes harmonies, modulations and embellishments are still there. Each arrangement is three minutes or shorter, making them perfect for use in services where timing is a consideration.

    Wonderful Christmas songs not of the common kid. Beautiful arrangements. Takes a little work but well worth it.

    I have found these arrangements enjoyable to play in a worship setting and appreciate the selection of pieces that are different from the standard Christmas carols. I was a little concerned that they would take more practice than I have time, but was encouraged upon reading other reviews, and agree...

    that they are very accessible for the intermediate pianist.

    This collection has a nice mixture of familiar and lesser known carols. Hayes' does a lovely job of harmonizing these songs, and they do not take long to prepare. A must for the busy church musician.
