Amazing Grace
$5.95
Moving and affective this solo begins unaccompanied and then later joined by the piano in a Celtic style. A second statement of the tune is further embellished and gains more complexity as it progresses. After a brief modulation the solo line becomes more plaintive- even though still embellished. The Coda is based on a brief motif where it ritards into a gentle repose.
